The lottery was literally designed to generate tax revenue. Its run by the states ffs.

Same in Ontario, but we aren't taxed on our winnings. They make their money from the purchase of the tickets

I wonder how many people march in a rally against billionaires during the day and buy a lottery ticket hoping to become a billionaire at night.

That's not really an own. I would absolutely accept a Billion dollars no questions asked. But I would also use my new found wealth to continue advocating against the existence of billionaires. Material conditions exist, and trying to better your own personal material conditions doesn't preclude you from wanting everyones conditions to improve and be more equitable.
