  Various nonsupersymmetric theories at large but finite $N$ are argued to
permit light scalars and large hierarchies without fine-tuning. In a dual
string description, the hierarchy results from competition between classical
and quantum effects. In some cases the flow may end when a string mode becomes
tachyonic and condenses, thereby realizing a quantum-mechanically stable
Randall-Sundrum hierarchy scenario. Among possible applications, it is
suggested that lattice simulation of \nfour Yang-Mills at large 't Hooft
coupling may be easier than expected, and that supersymmetry may naturally be
an approximate symmetry of our world. (This letter is a writeup of work
presented at Aspen in summer 2002.)
