Luck is a government cop-out IMO. Our governments shouldn't be in the business of luck, Las Vegas will get jealous.

All of you people working in avaition should be insulted by this. It is not luck you fly planes. It is not luck I work in agriculture. The only people that consider our employment / career development as luck is the Government... We are free and strong. Our jobs are not a result of random numbers. We choose our future.

Surely convincing people that they are 'lucky' to have a job certainly puts emotional pressure on workers, no matter the industry..
