They didn't allow people to try and 'rise above' others (had methods of knocking them back in line). I suspect this equality was quite easy to keep up because the work people did was pretty much the same. I guess farming (cited as being the start of inequality) is probably because people could adopt different roles and relative wealth could more easily be accumulated. We are so used to a relative dog eat dog society i guess it's hard to imagine how a truly equal and fair society could exist. I am going to include the pretty type of rock in a central statue for all to enjoy!<br /><br /><br />Hi KenD ....where do you find yourself?<br /><br />I was in Lincolnshire this morning near Louth.

Getting along is the optimal solution.<br /><br />I wonder if in a theoretical social experiment in which everyone had everything they could ever need, if some of the subjects would revert to the 'survival of the fittest' behavior anyway?<br />So imagine maybe there would be one pretty type of rock that maybe just a few would have initially, it would be coveted, and then despite having all the food, drink, creature comforts, etc... despite all that, the society still degenerates a bit?Erichttp://annoiatoregazzoneoclassico.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4438823154447008264.post-88847693050872527682011-07-31T23:16:16.070+01:002011-07-31T23:16:16.070+01:00Forget about the letter :)
