Proposal: Medicinal gambling money for gambling addicts - the smartest idea ive ever had

[Big Beefus]

We don't need to debate weather its a good idea or not because i already know its good. I just need to figure out how it will work.

Open To Suggestions.

Seriously that guy is Exhibit A for why this idea would fail, and it would make Eddie the most powerful man in the universe. RATS would rule the world.

I propose a system where all recipients of gambling support payments should have to complete a certain number of hours of community service each week to qualify. It could be entirely run by the private sector and require annual licensing fees be paid back to the government by the providers and participants.

What if we make it so that the medicinal gambling money is really just credits that only work at government-run medicinal casinos (said casinos also take regular money)? Then the program more than pays for itself.

I think it would be better to assign them tard wranglers to pull them out while they're ahead. Sit on their chest while the dopamine rush subsides.

My only concern is that the community service requirement introduces an element of delayed gratification that would scare away participants. Maybe make the first payment free, have a very low hours requirement for the second payment, and start incrementing with each payment until they're essentially working jobs? They won't even know what hit em.

The US has a surplus of fat guys, it would be nice to finally leverage that resource in the interest of public health.

I got some bad news for you. Welfare recipients will put their welfare into the lottery. The system you have proposed already exists.

There is a similar principle in the lottery system, but I think we could make it even more effective. They typically won't put the entire check into the lottery and the wait for results gives them too much time to make other decisions buy gas station snacks with the rest of their money. We can do better.

Actually, I'm satisfied with that. My idea was so good, it already exists.
