Keep Gambling to Pay for My College Because I am Entitled and Incapable of Saving my Own Money

There's a Missouri Lottery commercial that has children encouraging adults to gamble away their money. Have you seen this? It's the entitled generation begging adults to fritter away their money on Missouri Powerball, Pick III, Scratchers, and whatever other games of chance Missourians can throw their money at.

The children point out how the Missouri Lottery is making sure they are going to college. Gone are the lessons of working hard and saving for college. Rather the message of the commercial is gamble your money away in some foolish game, which Rush Limbaugh calls a tax on the poor, so we get free college.

While it appears the Missouri Lottery has not posted the commercial on YouTube, there are numerous students on YouTube like Audrey Gibson encouraging Missourians to gamble away their money so she doesn't have to work herself to pay for her college education.



This seems irresponsible having children encourage adults to gamble their money away. As well, it promotes this we are entitled to this so keep gambling to fund our entitlement.

Now the Missouri Lottery is throwing electronics at these students.



Perhaps if some of these kids parents had saved rather than throw their money at Missouri Lottery lottery tickets for the past 20 plus years, then maybe they would be closer to going to college without this entitlement program in place.

Sure, it's not the worst entitlement program ever, but doesn't it seem misguided that children are encouraging adults to gamble away their money?
