Society and economy have come to the point where winning is valued less than not losing. Phrases like 'too big to fail' get thrown about. Failures get more visible through media, and the consequences of failures are more likely to be disastrous. It all means the entrepreneurial, pioneering, romantic mindset from before is gone. People want to gain without having to lose. They want to win without risk. They want the free meal, the golden ticket. That's not natural, because everything comes at a cost. There are no free rides.
C'mon guys. Scoring isn't the point. Not losing isn't the point. Winning is.
