fuck off ea

Yes. And it has nothing to do with your image. Getting kids hooked on gambling is seriously fucked, man. Like, even as a dude who doesn't give much of a shit about the safety of children in general and tends to mock those "think of the children!" pearl clutchers, this shit just comes off as total scum. Like a step and a half below kiddy diddlers, they both fuck kids up in their own way.

Yes I don't want gambling to be the industry standard for unlocking any content in literally every game.

they already have it in japan, i dont see why we cant do it in the west. same shit for trading card games' packs, too.

People are fucking retarded and need to be controlled.

"Yes government please protect my copyright for 120 years, I love the law!"
"No wait, take these responsibilities away from me"

This. Newfags will never know the joy of unlocking fighting game characters doing stupid shit.

Cuck.

In the same the Police are needed to keep retarded, insane, undesirable or dangerous people out of the general public.
Lootboxes are another form of gambling. Retarded people with gambling addictions can't help themselves, and so get help thrust upon them.

But not marx has a point.

No, and all authoritarians deserve the rope. If they are actually doing child gambing, prosecute them under that law.

>t. commie
back to redit

>the economic value/profit
who comes up with that shit?
more than half of that green shit goes to pay the common assets of the companies, like the rents, the tools and the local taxes. Your boss doesn't take it all for himself, he takes a few dollars per person at best, and get rich because he can hire more than just your little lazy ass.

The green circle is called incentive, to even give you the yellow circle. WIthout it, there's no reason to hire you in the first place.

In a free market you are always able to try and make your own green circle and deal with all the problems yourself.

From the sounds of it he's either self employed or runs his own business.

>he actually believes this

Your bosses find loop holes and lobbys for exemptions so that they don't pay much taxes at all. Dumb bootlickers like you are the only ones actually paying taxes.

>living paycheck to paycheck is a bad thing
fuck off commie

If he actually was the bossman he wouldn't have the audacity to lie like that.

Cope harder

As cancer as they are, no. We don't need to have a law for every fucking little thing just because people are too stupid to control themselves.

How do you know so very little about how the economy works?
You want all the value you generate? Be a 1-man business. Cause no employer needs people that they can't make money off of. Brainlet.

what is that "value" in green? Many jobs don't produce value. If you are paid to put items on a shelves, you dont't produce value. It you are paid to clean, you don't produce value. Not everybody in the mac donalds that hire you actually "produce" anything. the burger flipper transform 50 cents forth of frozen food into a 2dollar burgers, but the dude that put them in the happy meal doesn't generate anything. neither is the dude at the door checking for black people.
A company isn't a set of identical drones that generate money by themselves.

What if the child consents tho

The concept of "surplus labor" is nonsensical leftypol tranny. Learn what marginal productivity is.

"I don't know what value is. I don't know what a wage is. I don't know what time preference is. I don't know what capital equipment is. I don't know what revenue or profits are. I don't know the first fucking thing about anything involving money, and that's why I'm a socialist."
--the thread

It's less people making more money than me and more that I'm not being paid fairly. If the most important person to your company is supposedly the cashier, why does a Walmart executive get paid far more than a store's worth of cashiers?

Imagine being enough of a bootlicker to write out this comic.

I would love for them to get canned, but It could set a bad precedent for gov involvement with games

>hurr pay me more for existing
entitled zoomers I swear

>it's another dumbfuck commie does not understand economics thread
read up on marginalism you fucking idiot

>I want to be a wage slave because throwing my life away being "productive" for others who enjoy life is good

Nice slave mentality. Maybe you will get a pat or the back from your boss when he gets back from his game of golf where he is "networking."

>I don't know what value is
I'll tell you what value ISN'T.

Yes
They're predatory upon people with poor impulse control
And the overwhelming majority of modern media, social networking, advertising, and entertainment is made to break down people's self-discipline and impulse control.

As long as you aren't the capital, you are either deluded or a communist. Every bootlicker ITT who says that business owners are right to work for their personal gain is right, but they are gravely mistaken assuming that means it's their duty to prop them up. We have the power, and as it is the right, and perhaps even the moral duty, of the capital to look out for its interests, it's our right to look out for ours. We have more power, but it's harder for us to exercise it because we first have to unite. The capital knows this and that's why they fear communism, unions and everything that threatens them. As they should. In fact, they should be pissing themselves. Yet they don't, and that only means one thing: You are fucking mindbroken if you, as a labourer, uncritically contribute to this society built for the capital.

>marxist calling anyone a bootlicker
Every Marxist regime was extremely authoritarian dumbfuck. Your ideology cannot be enforced without a massive police state.

>the most important person to your company is supposedly the cashier

Anyone with an arm and a pulse can be a cashier. Heck I don't even get paid to be a cashier and I can ring all my groceries through the self checkout in half the time the guy who gets paid to do it can.

How about the guy who has to order all the stock and negotiate prices, or the guy who has to eat the costs if the business tanks, or the guy who has to make sure all his buildings are up to code, or the guy who has to hire everybody and make sure they are loafing around all day?

What if it's pretty?

>I accept being paid less because my boss told me he couldn't stay in business despite making 10 times as much as me while producing nothing
Cope

>moral duty

The content will still be there, though. If anything, it'll be more accessible and easier to obtain instead of dishing out $100 for 50 lootboxes on a "MAYBE"

He also pays for all the materials, equipment, and the location in which the work is performed.

Labor's share of national incomes in advanced capitalist economies hovers between 60% and 70% . Even if you allow for stuff like executive pay and econometric inaccuracies and whatnot, the idea that workers' income could be tripled/quadrupled/whatevered if you allow them to keep their surplus value is a Marxist fantasy at best and conscious lie at worst.
