CHAPTER 4: THE TIME TO ORGANIZE IS NOW The Time to organize peacefully is Now. We are not fools, though we have been treated as such. The financial disparities of the world are a product of evolution, not intelligence, talent, or skill. The evidence of this is found quite easily with a simple perusal of the globe. The majority of the wealth upon this planet is located north of the equator (the Global North), and the majority of the poverty on the planet is to the south (the Global South). As well, the majority of the land mass of this planet that experiences deep winter is located north of the equator, as is the majority of the land mass that holds the largest Human populations. Our species has evolved from hunter- gatherers, which means that those who lived through winter learned from stark survival practices that if they did not save their goods for times of such deficiency, then they would not see the spring. Since the use of currency became a normal practice for Humanity, we no longer gather food in the same way, however, we retain the genetic memory of our ancestors. This has caused us to hoard our money wherein we used to hoard our food, so the onset of the exceptionally wealthy is a byproduct of the natural course of our human evolution Because we are a sentient species, we may recognize redundant choices that are more a product of our instincts than decision-making practices. This means that we may change the future of our genus by deciding to evolve beyond the seen trajectory that our basic human instincts would allow. For the most part, the wealthy families of the world remain the wealthy families of the world and the poor and middle-class families remain as poor and middle-class families. This also is a byproduct of our societally instinctual evolution. More often than not, the countries of the world (not just the US, mind you) are run by those who are wealthy (or at least wealthier than the average person that they govern), however, the wealthy of the world do not make up the bulk of its population. Therefore, those who are governing do not properly represent those who they govern. If they did, then their wages would be congruous with the People’s average. It is that simple. In 1750’s Boston, the Congregational pastor Jonathan Mayhew coined the phrase No taxation without representation in sermon to his gathering of colonists at Old West Church. This slogan burned through their Human hearts like wildfire. The Boston Tea Party’s infamous display of freedom was inspired, and the subsequent revolution of the colonists came forth. These islanders of Britain then excised themselves through force (a method proven only to resolve our species’ differences in short terms) from a sovereignty that no longer represented the mass interests of the People.
