This makes the word "dominant" (and/or it's meaning) meaningless, then.

Not at all: it has a very definite meaning, in terms of genetics. The dominant gene will always be expressed instead of the recessive gene. That doesn't mean that there's a lot of dominant genes out there to be expressed. "Dominance" refers to the chance that a carrier of the gene will express it; it does not refer to the proportion of carriers to noncarriers.
