It's pretty easy to understand and not deep at all.

All those people prefer to go back to the game where it's almost certain they will die but that at least gives them one chance, rather than living a normal life in a ruthless capitalist society that treats them as garbage.

One of them suicides rather than going back to poverty ( the friend who mortgaged his mother's house )

The protagonist was going to be gutted by his loaners. He had signed a waiver on his body rights.

There are some participants who didn't come back. I assume that we were supposed to assume that they didn't come back because they had died in society.
