- xapata 8y agoI'm somewhat confused by the downvote. The article seemed to provide compelling evidence that lotteryesque savings accounts encourage savings, especially among populations who save the least. I'll again ask: Why would such a policy need be coupled with the removal of state lotteries? One could implement it and get benefit regardless of the traditional lottery.
- darkpuma 8y agoI think you're right, there is no reason the two must necessarily be connected. Although I think the legalization of gamified savings accounts might provide an opportunity to ban state-run lotteries.
