Actually, it has been commented that many philosophies we humans have
cooked up attempt to violate the three rules.
For instance, Capitalism assumes you can win.
Communism assumes that you can break even, too.
Finally, spiritualism assumes you can quit the game.
My take on that?
Life's a B****h and then you reincarnate: you ain't getting out of it
*that* easy.
In all of the above... the golden rule is TANSTAAFL.
(And, yes, there's a wikipedia entry on the ETLA)

Not a chance... To roughly translate the 2nd law of thermodynamics:
- You can't win
- You can't break even
- You can't leave the game
Sigh...
