"The paradigm of competition is a race: by rewarding the winner, we encourage everyone to run faster. When capitalism really works this way, it does a good job; but its defenders are wrong in assuming it always works this way."
Great quote by Richard Stallman

The only problem I have with that: I'm 53 years old. I'm tired of running.
Capitalism doesn't just reward the winner(s). It punishes the losers.
