    this can be used to further prove that evolutionary design and not some ‘Divine Rights Of Kings God’ design was the thing that made us who we are today. For all species, not only humans.

    Not that a god or Gods dont exist. But why are we alloweing capitalists to tell us that ‘The gods or God has chosen for some to be poor and frail and for others to be needlessly rich and obese?’

    Why are we choosing to listen and accepting thejr conservative ideologies?

    Parenti said it before: “All conservative ideologies justify existing inequities as the natural order of things, inevitable outcomes of human nature. If the very rich are naturally so much more capable than the rest of us, why must they be provided with so many artificial privileges under the law, so many bailouts, subsidies and other special considerations - at our expense? Their “nat urally superior talents” include unprincipled and illegal subterfuge such as price-fixing, mass m%%der, stock manipulation, insider trading, fraud, tax evasion, the legal enforcement of unfair competition, ecological spoliation, harmful products and unsafe work conditions. One might expect naturally superior people not to act in such rapacious and venal ways. Differences in talent and capacity as might exist between individuals do not excuse the crimes and injustices that are endemic to the corporate business system.”

      It sounds like there’s some sort of pyramid scheme, and it’s on the people who make the world run
