Every individual is in an economic war with every other individual on earth for resources necessary for life. And every thing we do, every thought we have, every decision we make is always in our own self-interest, whether economic or otherwise and whether we realize it or not. This is the way life works. If we don't learn how to co-operate and thus mutually survive, the logical extreme of this self-interested warfare is for there to be only one person left alive who has killed everyone else. It would seem that some form of voluntary, mutual co-operation would be much better. There are many web sites where one can freely learn about various economic and political theories. Perhaps some browsing of them might also help in this regard. Bill Fairchild Plainfield, IL
