That's crazy that Massachusetts has joined the states to release a $50 ticket (Florida, I believe Texas has a $100 one).

I can't think of a single reason why anybody isn't a gambling addict would be actively "excited" about this.

Scratchers are stupid.
Heads, you win thirty cents. Tails, you lose a dollar.

Scratch tickets should be banned, they're literally just a tax.

They should but they won’t. We should also ban cigarettes, alcohol, and soda, but we won’t.

Or maybe fix the roads? Like, where the fuck is this money even going

Same as there’s a special tax on weed but no one’s showing up at your door if you don’t buy weed. That one is a tax on thc. Scratch tickets are a tax on stupid.

I can say that I am excited for the $50 scratch ticket in February.
It would be a lie, but I could say it.

They'll still take 30 min to pick 50 different $1 scratch tickets.

People buy scratchers because they are desperate for change and the ticket represents hope. Yes they’re a fucking waste of money - but calling people who buy them losers and shit is callous and makes you all sound like assholes.
