Looked at from a different angle, the folks that get put into office get to decide who "wins" and who "loses" among the citizenry.

That'd be enough to give me some anxiety. What if the person that gets into office has enough political power to bring back the Pre-existing condition nonsense? That would certainly decide that my wife and I deserve to "lose" for being born with certain chronic conditions.

For us, it would hurt, for some people they may just completely "lose" their livelihood.

Just a thought.

EDIT: Wanted to make sure I mentioned that I agree with your initial premise.

I looked up synonyms for opponents and my favorite is "fellow contestant"
