I'm under the impression that these shows are designed to make regular people think one or more of the follwiing:

  • if you stay in the race long enough and work hard enough, you can attain the same thing

  • if you can't, you're a failure = go drown your sorrows by being a good consumer.

  • be unhappy with their situation and persuaded to blame minorities or the government.
