You're right capitalism is the ultimate scoring game. A friend of mine had a plaque on his wall that stated "He who has the most toys when he dies Wins."
Or what about the feelings of Saddam? Will he not feel saddened and inferior when the US navy 'unfairly' starts lobbing Tomahawk cruise missiles at him when he cannot retaliate in an equal manner? He might get depressed since the playing field is not equal!
Oh my....!
