Initiate Creation of a National Lottery Similar to Spain's "El Gordo"

Created by J.B. on December 28, 2012

Initiate the creation of a monthly lottery, similar to Spain's "El Gordo." Rather than have a single mega-winning number, set the odds so that many people have a chance to win. The maximum payout would be $250,000, with many smaller prizes. The government would keep 40% to help pay down the deficit and distribute the remaining 60% in prizes. The government would win, as would many citizens who would be able to pay bills and debts.
