Democrats and MSM: "Conspiracies involving huge systems--like voting--can never happen." Ooops.
Whenever some poor, deplorable working stiff claims insiders conspired to rig anything big that operates in the public realm, how do the Lying Mainstream Media always react?
They ridicule him. "Can't possibly happen," they claim. "To do something that outrageous would require lots of people's help, and it would be impossible to keep such a conspiracy secret."
Ridiculing the possibility of a successful conspiracy is how Democrats make people refuse to believe massive, organized vote fraud can or has happened--and will happen again and again.
So if someone claimed insiders had rigged a state lottery, resulting in their winning at least five jackpots worth over $16 million, you can be certain your betters in the media would say "Couldn't happen. Cuz winning numbers are generated randomly by a computer that's in a glass room with video security, and not connected to any outside network. There's no way that could possibly happen. And anyone who believes such a ridiculous story is a fool."
Ah. Well....
Now a computer guy working for the "Multi-State Lottery Association" pleaded guilty to rigging the lottery so he and his friends could win over five state lotteries worth over $16 million. Got away with it for at least five years.
The guy did it by inserting a program into the computer that generated the supposedly-random winning numbers.
Oh, and did I mention that the guy was head of security for the lottery association? Yeah.
The guy's own brother "won" $568,000 in the lottery, but no one in the association thought that odd.
But remember, citizen: conspiracies involving big-stakes deals, in areas subject to intense public scrutiny, simply can't happen.
And also remember that if you ever heard any warnings from conservatives, back when your state was considering whether to start a lottery, that they'd become magnets for corruption, you are advised to ignore those warnings. Because you can trust government officials to make sure things are honest.
Besides, half the proceeds go to funding schools. So "it's for the children," right?
