Has anybody learned over the vast time of human experience that COOPERATION is vastly more productive for everybody than competition??????????????????????????????????? And that war NEVER settled a damned thing but just: -- enriched the war materiel makers -- murdered the young and the innocent -- destroyed assets and treasures of all kinds -- set up the seeds of the next war One does NOT have to be a great philosopher or historian to see and understand this. ANYBODY who considers it carefully for maybe 10 minutes straight can understand it. Certainly competition is better than war. But stripped down to its basics, it's just another justification of why a few should be rich, and the rest of the population should be serfs. The essence of competition in a given market is that you get to dominate it, then destroy your competition, then stick it to your customers. Survival of the "fittest"? Certainly, if you define fittest as most aggressive, hostile and vicious. Merit might be in there somewhere, but it is by no means dominant.
