What about someone buying $50 of scratchers a day? Why conflate a reasonable habit on one thing with an unreasonable habit on the other when both can obviously be done reasonably or unreasonably?

That's in between. I would be fine doing away with scratchers as well. But having to go to seek out the tickets is better than your phone reminding you it's tip off in 3 minutes and you have a free $20 to bet on prop bet.

This. There's a lady that comes in to my local 7/11 and spends at least $200 on lottery tickets every week. There's no limit for people who really like to buy lottery tickets.
