16.The following appeared in a letter to the editor of a local newspaper from a citizen of the state of Impecunia.
Two years ago our neighboring state, Lucria, began a state lottery to supplement tax revenues for education and public health. Today, Lucria spends more per pupil than we do, and Lucrias public health program treats far more people than our states program does. If we were to establish a state lottery like the one in Lucria, the profits could be used to improve our educational system and public health program. The new lottery would doubtless be successful, because a survey conducted in our capital city concludes that citizens of Impecunia already spend an average of $50 per person per year on gambling.
A、L地区能够花费能多的钱在教育上以及医疗项目能够是能多人受益,并不一定是由于L地区的彩票。可能L地区本身的经济就比较发达,政府在教育和医疗上的拨款数额比I地区大,还可能是L地区政府的教育和医疗的重视度比较高。即使L地区在教育和医疗上的进步是由于彩票,也是过去两年的情况,并不能够保证今后还能继续发展下去。
B、即使L地区能够继续这样发展下去,I地区采用同样的方法后,也不一定能够成功。因为两个地区存在着很多不同,例如I地区的居民不太喜欢购买彩票,或者说I地区的居民收入不太高,他们不太会在彩票上投入资金。另外,I地区实行彩票后,可能会带来一些负面影响,例如有些居民可能会沉溺于彩票当中,从而耽误了正常的工作和生活。
