This is bullshite. It's more like When access to markets is limited, people will resort to dealing with scarcity in more violent and aggressive ways. People don't naturally beat and steal from each other for resources, they do it when there are not ways to mutually benefit.
People act to satisfy their own desires. They will cooperate only if the results of cooperation satisfy their desires. Otherwise they will compete, and they may go so far as to exceed the acceptable rules for competition to gain whatever advantage necessary to obtain the desired level of satisfaction.
Go out and live a little. Learn some lessons in human nature through experience. Learning from practical experimentation is much more fun than trying to learn the theory from books.

And a lot more applicable. Not downplaying the importance of the education of theories, but the divergence between academia and application can only be seen when you have been on both sides.
Also apologies Josh. Didn't mean to attack you personally last night, but take what we are all saying to heart. I would never, never talk ill towards someone that is trying to learn something new. But just understand that no matter how much sense something may make, doesn't mean it will happen. I can name a landry list of investment ideas that at the time were completely sound that a lot of people agreed with, only for the world to actually happen and shite on those ideas.
A very wise man once told me, "The quickest way to make God laugh is to tell him your 5-year plan."
