OK, I'm gonna make this short in the hopes you might actually read it. If you don't, I won't waste my time replying again.
• Luck is present in every economic and cultural success. Copyright is no more or less a "lottery" in this respect than anything else.
• The rights holder does pay for protection, in two ways. The primary way is that most of the burden of enforcing copyright falls on the rights holder.
• Just as with police and fire, copyright holders pay taxes. Sales taxes on the content; corporate taxes on the publisher; income taxes on the creator / rights holder.
Registration changes nothing about the above factors or their dynamics. You aren't any "luckier" or likely to succeed because you register. And the rights holder is already paying to protect the work, via any litigation costs and taxes.
Thus, the "lottery" concept is patently absurd. I suggest you drop it.
