Humanity in the World – Summary

(drain)Pipe Dream
Humanity is a single species of Homo sapiens organized in a dynamic global society claiming the entire world as its habitat. *
This global society is structured to favor individual possession of the earth’s resources.
The individuals with the most possessions decided the policies of humanity. **
— End of summary
* Unlike other society building creatures humanity cannot move to another location when they have exhausted the resources at their disposal.
** The policies of the decision makers invariably promote the increase of the possessions of the decision makers regardless of the consequences for other Homo sapiens, other forms of life or the condition of the earth.

In the end, metaphorically, the majority of us are coerced into our own confinement; except for the exceptional in control, of course, who wall off dissension.
