When Trump supporters say this, they might as well wear a neon sign that says "I lack a 5th grade education in probability and statistics!"

for you because you seem upset

please disabuse yourself of the idea you are trying to explain it to me. there is very small chance to succesfully explain something you do not understand.

not only you are in your effort to simplify it presenting such nonsenses like "you can get only one lottery ticket per week", the metaphor "1 lockbox and 1 key is one lotto ticket for this week", you are using trying to wrap your mind around the situation is fundamentally wrong.

lottery and lockboxes are completely different mechanism, so you cant really substitute them in your head. while lottery is a drawing from finite number of tickets, where one is guaranteed to win the main prize, lockbox gives you chance in every spin.

guess what - in lottery, you can simply buy all tickets and have guaranteed first prize (you will loose money anyway, because lottery has negative roi). that can't happen with lockbox, because there is no finite amount of them. you can buy as many as you can afford and get nothing.

and btw openig multiple boxes with multiple keys and getting repeated run on the same box with multiple keys is the same propability situation with the same results, but that is really not core of the argument.

so again, this could help you to wrap YOUR mind around it - https://www.amazon.com/Probability-Dummies-Deborah-J-Rumsey/dp/0471751413/
