Hi ya,

This planet did not begin with private ownership of land or resources. In many cultures, wealth was shared.

Nor do I believe it started with X-Billions of people. There may have been many cultures where wealth was shared, but to be fair, there have also been a great many with a hierarchy. The people at the bottom of the hierarchy got considerably less than those at the top. It seems to me, though, since the beginnings of man, there is much evidence to suggest that social evolutionary processes have, are, and will to all probability continue.

What they were, or what they are, does not mean it will always be that way. However the process will inevitably be a slow one.

Just bouncing off of an idea....
