Is the Lottery a "Dumb Tax"?phantom of the opera

With a one-in-fourteen-million chance of winning and the operators and Government laughing all the way to the bank, it is certainly a tax on the hard-of-thinking, but not dumb people particularly because they are mute!

Sadly the 'good causes' money isn't going on the symphony orchestras, theatres and opera houses, as more and more of it is being pinched by Government to waste on the 2012 Olympics. See how only last week many theatre companies and arts organisations have had their small grants stopped so that billions can be squandered on this extravagant act of vanity for London and the politicians involved!

And does anybody actually want the Olympics? (Apart from Government and those spivs who stand to make a financial killing out of it?)
