It's really a glass half empty headline, isn't it? It's like if someone got bronze at the Olympics and the headline were, "Athlete loses to multiple opponents, fails to get gold or silver medal."

If you teach people life is harsh, then typically they won't try new things. If you tell people life is easy and risk free, they may do something that gets them killed...
If you balance out both you get people that try new things with appropriate safety and risk tolerance.
Coke and Pepsi both are winning, though your comments sound like you think one is a loser for not being top sales in beverage.
I'm not really sure your point. Just because the 2nd placed entity is earning lots of cash means that they are winning? They may be successfully operating their business, but if someone is earning more then they are not winning. I'm really not sure of your definition of winning. Maybe you're using the Charlie Sheen version of winning?
If winning and losing were a spectrum, all those things you listed are very clearly much closer to winning than they are to losing.
