Things like this keep me up at night. I'm not sure of exact figures, but our national debt is staggering. I mean, seriously, there has to come a point when we cannot make the interest payments on the money our country owes. What happens then? Makes me shudder.
So, my plan:
Have a national lottery. Take $1 every day from every Canadians already ridiculously high taxes (perhaps from the welfare portion

) and put it into a lottery. Every business day, make five Canadians millionaires. Thats $25 million a week in payouts, the rest goes straight to the debt.
Seriously. Why wouldn't this work? (I know the logistics would be hard, besides that I mean)
I know I'd do it.
