They are! according to Jon Oliver on HBO's Last Week Tonight (If the link below doesn't work, search for "Jon Oliver Lottery" on YouTube) As with anything that's even-slightly-possibly dangerous, 'crazy-stoopids' will hurt themselves with it; but with the state-governments advertising that the 'crazy-stoopids' should stoopidly keep playing the craze ... I guess I'm saying that--like they have Public-Service Announcements (PSAs) saying you shouldn't play on electrical-lines like they're a jungle-gym--they oughta have PSAs saying you shouldn't play the state-lottery with money you have to use on food- & other survival-items!
State lotteries claim to be good for education and the general wellbeing of citizens. But are they? (Spoiler alert: No.) Connect with Last Week Tonight onlin...
