Good post, Skybird. I might not agree with you on several matters, but it appears that we share the same opinions on economic politics.

You say 'Lotto-mentality' is the reason people supports the market liberal system, but another reason, that may be just as important, is people's tendency to exaggerate their own abilities and chances in a competitve system. People believe that in a competitive economic system, they will be among the winners, but as you say, the great majority will be among the losers.
