Have you heard of the powerball lottery being referred to as a "stupid tax"? People play the Powerball for hopes and feelings and vibes, usually not understanding how infinitesimally small their odds are. They're not going to win, they're just throwing money away to feel better.

You still have better odds of winning the Powerball than Claudia had of winning the general election. It's gonna come out sounding harsh but that's the reality of it.
