30 years of preying on the poor and innumerate to help the rich avoid paying taxes.
The state should provide a lottery game to prevent the return of the numbers rackets, but it should do so in the same manner and attitude as it provides methadone to heroin addicts:
to reduce the harm caused by a destructive addiction and to help the victims learn to manage their problem successfully. Not to encourage people to become addicted so as to fill state coffers.
