The truth is that if you are in control you win all the time without losing. This can only possible in a Perfect World where you actually know things ahead of time and have control over them.
A perfect world exists but is often denied by those living in the imperfect world. It's a World ruled by the CREATOR of all things,and it exists on Earth.
We cannot change the world politics neither we can expect anything from our government. The only thing we can do is to earn money and have a good living. Rather than looking for help. Regarding the OP - we can always pray to God to save us from the ill of the world.
