Ancient Yiddish humor: Old man, dying, calls out to God, "Why couldn't I at least win the lottery?" And God says, "Why couldn't you at least buy a ticket?" People complain because there isn't a formula for success and the propaganda stories promise one, but don't deliver. It's not their fault that they don't deliver, because no one can. It's your fault for even thinking there was a formula. And it's their fault for encouraging you to think that.
