So your complaint is that other people shouldn't ever have good things happen to them? This isn't a case of something bad happening to you, it's a case of something good happening to someone else. They are in no way related.
Do you play the lottery? is it unfair if someone other than you wins?
Don't ever complain that someone else had something good happen to them.
I saw an interesting study about pre-schoolers at one point. They gave the kids a choice of getting 1 cookie, and another kid getting none, or them getting 2 and the other kid getting 3. The majority of the kids preferred the first option to the second.... And that's exactly what I'm hearing on this thread. The hope was that people would grow out of such anti-social and destructive behavior, but it doesn't seem to be the case. Enjoy your 2 cookies, and don't complain because someone else has 3. The alternative is that you both get none.
