Hitting the Lottery Jackpot by David Nibert PDF Summary

Book Description: Hitting the Lottery Jackpot is a timely critique of the economic and social costs of state reliance on lotteries to generate public revenues. David Nibert highlights the conflicting role of the state as gambling promoter, to show who really profits -- advertising agencies, TV stations, and ticket vendors -- and who loses: lower-income groups and people of color. He also explores the ideological dimensions of the "get-rich-quick" individualism the state promotes among the very groups who would be better served by political action and solidarity.
