I think most idiots who hit the number just ruin themselves. I kinda did that when I was younger and made a few bucks. No lottery winnings, though. I hit a couple grand on a slot machine one time back in 2012. Which should pay $1,000,000 since slot machines in this state have about a 3% payout rate. Hahaha.

Lottery payouts should be a lot flatter. $300M to one moron? Nah. Give $1.8M to 160 morons. That way 160 people's lives could possibly change, and hopefully not so drastically that they disintegrate themselves.

Also, fuck the government, if I tried to run a 50% payout lottery (or any lottery) they'd barbeque my ass in motor oil.
