Default Beating the Rake (live and online)

I'm not sure if this was addressed before, but I just heard Phil Helmut talk about how he thinks the $2/$1 cash games in Vegas are a suckers game because of the rake structure. He says you can't win in those. Does anyone know how the math works out on that?

If the rake is a percentage of the total pot, why would it be more beatable on the higher limits?

Does online play have a similar disadvantage in the lower limit games?

What are your thoughts on beating the rake?
