38. Baloney. That's like saying an athlete would give up and stop training
because he or she wasn't ranked in the top three, receiving medals. Or, that anyone working ..... or breathing, would 'feel bad' because they aren't all 'yet' they'd dreamt of being. Teachers have given out little gold stars for elementary children for decades ...... rewarding for doing well isn't something new.

Your argument fails.
