                  Here is my take on subbywan's point. by merlin2007-01-22 13:28:45
                    That statement doesn't really say anything to me, by Peace_man 2007-01-22 13:50:38
since 'resources being threatened' is so subjective. It really says that some people are willing to share, and others aren't. And I was talking about 'share prosperity' in my TLP, which is something totally different from 'sharing resources'. Sharing resources is zero-sum, while sharing prosperity is mutual benefit. Which is where trading came in as a possible interpretation for the word 'share'.

Yep. I have said before that I really should ignore Subbywan's posts. His thinking seems to be so different from mine that there are inevitable communications difficulties. Sometimes it really isn't worth it, and I should just leave things unexplained.
