Humanity is far less independent and "free" than we fancy ourselves. We are still largely driven by biological impulses, just on a much grander scale than other species are.
It may be an apt observation, but I am not a fan of policy based on this observation. Just because people are sheep, doesn't mean you can herd them. The shepherd is an unknown vast force, no one person or group of people or government can control it or predict it. Every attempt leads to destruction.

The only real difference between us and the sheep is that we have mental capacity to ponder such things.

In essence, humanity is unique because we are the only animals with the ability to consider ourselves as such. Our self-awareness however doesn't change the fact that we exist for the exact same reason as every other living organism.
