Ah! That is the whole point! Deserve should have a lot to do with it. And deserve always comes up when someone wants to change or strech the doctrine. The only reason that the market "rules" so much is that we (human beings) allow this to happen. The market is shaped by existing law and does not have to make high protectionist choices. If a multitude of basically good persons (esp. attorney & politicians) in combination form an institution where "deserving" is not material, we need to reform the institution-- perhaps by insisting that each actor take responsibility for her own choices. Or to quote the great sage Hillel:

        If I am not for myself, who will be for me? But being for myself alone,
what am I? And if not now, when?
