7/5/13 Page 84 Might makes right (people driven by that mode of behavior) is a virus that consumes, like cancer, living beings. The entire human race operating on that basis of might making right will consume the entire human race rapidly, starting out slowly, but the pace of consumption, each person at each other's throat, quickens, and the end is a very rapid hell on earth with the last two people having a dire need to kill each other or die trying. Modified for readability: Might makes right (people driven by that mode of behavior) is a virus that consumes, like cancer, living beings. The entire human race operating on that basis of might making right will consume the entire human race, rapidly. Though starting out slowly, the pace of consumption, each person at each other's throat, quickens, and the end is a very rapid hell on earth with the last two people having a dire need to kill each other or die trying.

bear, "To me, this falls again into the category of two different worlds where you and I are targets because we produce more than we consume. On one hand, the "debt" based world is uncontroversial since there is a net sheet known as the Federal Tax "Liabilities" proving that fact. Our productive world, on the other hand, is driven by equitable thoughts and actions: The Golden Rule, morality, spirituality (whatever word works best in any case in this type of productive world)." I approve of this message.  Why do I think that is so funny?
