- Dylan16807 11y agoMore that there's no material effect to remove the rare prizes on a lottery that are only worth a penny on the dollar combined.
- iopq 11y agoSo scamming millions of dollar is OK, as long as there are enough victims to absorb that cost?
- ajnin 11y agoBy that reasoning you should stop paying your taxes, since everybody else can compensate by paying a tiny, imperceptible amount more.
- Dylan16807 11y agoI didn't say the theft was justified. But I would agree that nonpayment of taxes is not a crime that "victimizes" hundreds of millions of people. The main value of the product is the food. Even if all the prizes were stolen, I'm not sure if there would be a 'victim' in the consumer.
