What's radical is pretending it's anything else. For every millionaire ex-NFL players there are literal thousands who put everything into it and make nothing. It's inherently unpredictable, and represents no more real progress than a lotto ticket.
Contrast with actually raising the social floor or providing equal rights / protection / opportunity to all.
