That doesn't seem to be true. It seems, rather, that our ability to cooperate -especially- in the leanest times is precisely why we have such wonderful access to cheesecake and sex in the here and now. Do you think that people go apeshit the moment someone eats the last twinkie? We still manage to be decent while we starve - in case you were wondering...you've expressed an awfully dismal view of your fellow man here, pretty much the same shit as the "if no god, why be good". "if no food, why be good".
Same answers to both questions, same answers as if there is a god, or if there is food.

I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
