Taxes.
...Which the rest of the world understands well. So why don't you?
In germany the lottery is state owned and the tax is applied before money is added to the jackpot. So if the jackpot is 50mil you get 50mil
Yeah getting taxed on winnings is fucking insane, and they just say "it is what it is"
Is there any way they don't get fucked in the arse every time they get money 😂
Your massive inferiority complex regarding America is showing. It's quite clear that you just want to say Murica bad, Muricans dumb, and you can't resist shoehorning that sentiment into completely unrelated discussions.
You should find a healthier way of dealing with that emotion. It's currently making you look like a jackass.
