The struggle for limited resources leads almost certainly to war.
Unfortunately we as humans, can imagine ourselves taking extra amounts of the limited resources, therefore assume others will do so,and to protect ourselves from this take more ourselves.
Whereas it would be quite easy for a rational species to work together and to avoid conflict. We are most certainly not rational.
Unfortunately for every side that involves human players, that the above logic dictates nearly all strategic choices.
Some have suggested that there are only three thought processes, that really ever occur.
1.) Is it a threat (imaginary or real)?
2.) Can we hump it (unfortunately, AT science has proven that there are no women on the internet)?
3.) Can we eat it,(or will it give us food)?
So really, in earth, people only really operate with 2/3rds of their rational ability.
"If they can not provide food, then they are obviously a threat."
That basically sums up the past decade of strategic development for all sides.
Not posting on AT as much because Maki/Steeps gave back some of my forums on GHQ. RIP my decade long blog, my blog even had replies from people who are no longer with us :(.
