alsemanche 97,820 Posted June 5, 2021 Share Posted June 5, 2021 I get that it's supposed to encourage people to get vaccinated but I'm pretty sure they could have done that in 500 others ways and used this money to help actual people in need instead of spending it on lottery Soft, soothing, and succulent Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s probably best to use it to encourage people to get vaxxed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially Washington their state's GDP is $612 billion Besides, if this lottery gets a good amount of people to vaccinate themselves then it is doing good for the public I mean, they should get vaccinated regardless of the million dollar lottery but people suck, what can you do but play to their weaknesses for the betterment of society?

KillerMonster 2,361 Posted June 6, 2021 Share Posted June 6, 2021 That is insane. Some people cannot get vaccinated for health risks. Dont come at me, I’m not a anti-vaxer but I have Dysautonomia and several auto immune conditions and was told by all my doctors that I shouldn’t get it. Don’t play with me, it just hurts me.
