Loot Boxes are like Pokemon cards, you buy a pack, don't know what you're going to get, and then you can trade or sell them. Banning this is just preventing kids from developing a proper risk/reward instinct later in life.

Yeah we should just let 8 year olds into casinos to help them develop their risk reward instinct. Also, the risk reward instinct doesn't work as well when you're gambling moeny someone else earned.

Vast majority of those games don't allow trading or selling the things you got from lootboxes.

And "learning" about gambling doesn't need to happen at 8 years old. What a fucking delusional view
