If nothing else, the election of Donald J Trump has given 68% of the American population "Hope". Hope is something average guys and gals haven't had in a hell of a long time. With a fleeting shot at getting some kind of hope, a reason to get up in the morning, I have been asking my good wife to purchase at least one "qwik pic" lotto ticket every week. Of course, I don't expect we will ever win anything, because we never have. In the twenty years she has been doing this, I think we won a "free" lotto ticket on two or three occasions. That's it. No more, no less! So what does our two dollar lotto purchase do other than wasting $104.00 per/year? It buys us some "Hope". Some hope that maybe one day, we will be able to purchase a little cottage on the Maine Coast and live out the rest of our days in bliss.
