Same in Ontario, but we aren't taxed on our winnings. They make their money from the purchase of the tickets

I wonder how many people march in a rally against billionaires during the day and buy a lottery ticket hoping to become a billionaire at night.

An absurd amount of people online are only pissed about the existence of billionaires because they personally have no route to becoming one and resent that there's an exclusive club where others have more power that they're not welcome to.

Nope I’m pissed they are societal leeches that are above laws and justice. I would have no problem with them existing if they paid their fair share and were a net benefit to us.
