I literally brought up sin taxes, which you can very much never have to pay. Similarly not all income brackets pay income taxes.

But again, no one is forcing someone to play the lottery. There's no situation where some says "I want _____, but I would HAVE to play the lottery in order to get it."

Whereas a tax is mandatory towards a purchase of all non-essential items. You literally cannot live without paying some sort of tax. Even if you "live off the land" you paid taxes on whatever supplies you purchased to maintain that land, and also pay property taxes.

State lotteries are completely voluntary.
