My Social problem is under-aged gambling.

I simply need help with ideas on where the federal government would get tax money to help fund an Under-aged gambling prevention program.

This is how the government works.....I feel certain that if they can only give seniors a $10 a month increase in living expenses every 2 or 3 years, I seriously doubt they could find a solution to your need for funding.
I myself think that could be put into the "Pork" budget!

How the Government Works

Once upon a time the government had a scrap yard in the middle
of a desert. Congress said," Someone may steal it at night."
So they created a night watchman position and hired a person
at $18,000.00 a year for the job.

Then Congress said, "How does the watchman do his job
without instruction?" So they created a planning department
and hired two people -- one person to write the instructions
for $22,000.00 and one person to do time studies
for an additional $22,000.00 per year.

Then congress said, "How will we know the night watchman is
doing the tasks correctly?" So they created a
quality control department and hired two people.
One was to do the studies for $31,000.00
and one to write the reports for an additional $31,000,00 per year.

Then Congress said, "How are these people going to get paid?"
So they created the following positions:
a time keeper for a $35,000.00 annual salary
and a payroll officer for an additional $35,000.00
Then they created an administrative section and hired
three more people -- an Administrative Officer at $155,000.00
per year, an Assistant Administrative Officer at $125,000.00
and a Legal Secretary at $100,000.00 per year.

Then Congress said, "We have had this operating for one year
with a budget cost of $574,000.00
and we are $18,000.00 over budget.
We must cut back costs."

SO THEY LAID OFF THE NIGHT WATCHMAN

it isnt going to happen. with all the gambling culture with it on tv all the time, it simply will not happen. hey, im a minor, i play poker, and the country needs to pay for other things first. like, for instance, a misguided war in the middle east, social security and health coverage for the huge amount of baby boomers retiring, and the balancing a budget that never really had been balanced.
also, if any politician proposed it, it would be a good way not go get re-elected. it would be seen as wasting valuable time and money on something that really is not that important. poker has a huge following. any opposition of it will be shot down.

What social subject might those practice? i will understand the 1st occasion i think, of eating too plenty quickly food... yet how might you call that a social subject? the 2d isn't concerning any significant social subject. never can walmart or any super superstore be a social subject, neither is working at one. Why do not you attempt to do something on teenager being pregnant? that's what i might do. Use those sunlight hours television shows alongside with Maury or something, or maybe articles in the newspaper approximately those ladies that made a %. to get pregnant to narrate to the media. that could be a much greater severe subject, and individuals like to speak approximately it in the media.
