Expecting the world to treat you fairly because you are a good person is a lot like expecting the bull not to attack you because you are vegetarian.
I think this is in line with the question: Why do bad things happen to good people? The answer to which is: Because that's the way the world works.
But, lest we forget, good things also happen to good people. Hooray for that! Bad things happen to bad people, although not as often as we expect. And, surprise! Good things also happen to same bad people.
So, if we cancel out the common factors, we're left with: Things happen to people. That explains everything!
By the way, if you're a vegetarian and you taunt a bull in your red pajamas, you probably deserve to be attacked.
