Why does god put the needs of the few above the need of the many?

That moral tenet is about the only objective moral tenet I know of that has not been shown to ever be subjective. Yahweh seems to be doing the wrong thing.
 
We are told that most of us will end on the wide road to hell while the few end on the narrow path to heaven.
 
It is demonstrable that nature creates for the best possible end.
 
Why does Yahweh not follow the better rules he gave nature, and creates us for the worst possible end for the vast majority of us?
 
A decent father would not have the morals or ethics Yahweh seems to follow.
 
If true, then we end with more souls lost to Satan than souls saved by Yahweh. Even as scriptures say that Yahweh wills that all souls be saved.
 
God not getting his will is not allowed. God must always come out ahead. Something is not right for god.
 
Thoughts?

What say you about this perspective and semi-analogy instead? 

Humanity became disconnected from GOD and fell as a result of disobedience / rebellion / sin / breaking of the law - becoming judged like and captive to the being that caused their fall - which came/comes with consequences (in this case death of the body and soul - Ezekiel 18:4, Romans 6:23).

Let's view humanity, who were all principally in/from the first man, Adam (Romans 5:12), as prisoners in a pit who are sentenced to die.  However, the Judge against whom the offence (and offences) are committed, voluntarily decides to save and restore many of the underserving prisoners to eternal life to dwell with them by Personally paying the gruesome, humiliating price required for their freedom; graciously making invitation to receive pardon? (Isaiah 55:7, Psalm 51:17, Romans 10:8-10)... reaching into the pit to pull many out (Ephesians 2:8)

Now, I may be oversimplifying the matter in so describing, and there are many things that we do not understand as finite beings / flesh and blood, but really, what say you about a Judge like the One described?
