We Must Stop The Lottery

We must stop the lottery, it does more harm than good.  You might have heard about Patty Kennedy who won 200,000 dollars off of a scratch off ticket.  What the news didn't tell you is that she spent 500 dollars a month on playing the lottery. This adds up to 6,000 dollars a year!!  You have a better chance at getting struck by lightening than winning the lottery.  Your chances are 18 million to 1.  Only 30% of the lottery funds goes to the education.  If you wish to give to the schools please give money to them directly. Think about this before you buy your next ticket.
