American Roulette

America is run like a roulette table. Read the book "Fortune's Formula" by William Poundstone for a better description of roulette. If 60% of the people are slight winners, then the remaining 40% can get "cleaned out" and the majority will still favor the process. You must understand this math to understand this life. In an environment with no real loving connection between strangers, these 40% end up homeless or dead and no one really cares. This is America.

As long as 60% of the population has some form of house mortgage with current payments, then the rest of the 40% of the population present no threat to the existing power structure.
