Why do we have to race against the people to get ahead ?

Because of finite resources.

Finite food.

Finite water.

Finite petroleum

Finite jobs.

Finite money (
to some degree).

Our lives depend on these finite resources and where our lives don't literally depend on them (money), we've required that you have these things to get the things your life actually does depend on (food) and punish you for circumventing the system (when you steal so you don't starve).
Even when you have to kill others to get that finite resources ??

Quote:So the answer is if you don't race ahead, then you are at the mercy of those who do. Human nature being what it is, they will only be merciful for so long. Afterwards your life, such as it is, won't be worth living for you.

Thats my question. What if no body raced ahead ? What if human nature was merciful for evermore ?
