Re: Why?



May be this is improper allegory, but I want to submit this for
reflections:

Think of this Forum as an open Savanna in wide plains of Kenya
where in rainy season where grasses grow big; an old acacia trees
have juicy leaves, all animals lived in harmony fro the season,
All lions, cheaters, hyenas and leopards were running with full
bellies and left bigger pieces for smaller meat eaters. Large
grazing animals lie elephants, giraffe, wilder beast didn't mind
at all if the old and crippled member of their society ahs fallen
down from the age and was eaten by lions and hyena.
Occasionally when grazing they look up and see big vouchers cruising
in the sky looking for the older kill that no lion or hyena want ed
t eat anymore.

It was a good time for everybody. The lion have plenty of meat and
the wider beast have more grass and don't mind ed at all if among
them will be less competition for juicy grass.

Soon the rains stopped, the water became scares and almost all
grazing animals started to run to northern plain where new bosses of
life and death govern the territory.

Think for a moment that grazing animals are like accordions and meat
eating animals are accordion tuners, rebuilders, foreign accordion
manufacturers of small stuff.

Now all those meat eating animals remain in place. Less and less
food can be brought to feed bunch of little baby lions. The mama
would not hesitate if she kills the jackal, or the small piglet. Her
kids want to eat. There is no mercy for anybody. The few monkey that
remained locally are afraid even to go to sip little of muddy water.
Everybody tries to kill somebody just for food.

The man is nothing more that sophisticated animal that uses more
refined methods to kill for food. It might look like an argument and
discussion but this is a fight for survival of the fittest. Less
competition - more food on the table. It's simple law of
economics and many people seem to ignore it and do not understand it.
It's very simple!
