Would you rather have organized crime run the lotteries and reap the profits? That was the de facto situation before state lotteries.

- somat 4y agoI would bet the payout and the odds would be better... What is organized crime but another alternate government(small g government), no no wait, hear me out. You pay them and they make sure your business operates without trouble, exactly the same set of services the government offers, organized crime is illegal because the government(big G government) hates the competition. Joking aside, organized crime sucks for the same reason that all dictatorships suck. The other point to note, where private owned gambling exist(nevada etc) it regulates(self and government oversight) to make about the same profit margin as the insurance industry. The margin on the lottery is unethical.
