It's the UNLotto!
Reuters astonishes with Finnish Leader Says Global Lottery Could Fund UN:

HELSINKI (Reuters) - Plans for a global lottery to help fill United Nations coffers have taken a step forwards and could become reality within 18 months, according to a former Finnish leader promoting the idea.

Martti Ahtisaari, a former president and U.N. peace broker, said on Saturday the United Nations had recently agreed a cooperation project with the World Lottery Association (WLA), and if it got the go-ahead, it could be running by late 2003.

"We will know at the end of the year how lottery support can be put into practice," he told STT news agency in an interview.

Ah! A tax on the poor and innumerate to benefit well-to-do bureacrats. How very UN of the UN!
