In truth all of nature is essentially capitalism in action where even the ant in his unique cooperative is no sluggard.[3]

- ↑ "The squirrel hoards nuts, and the bee gathers honey, without knowing what they do, and they are thus provided for without selfishness or disgrace." The Transcendentalist, Ralph Waldo Emerson.
In truth every squirrel who gathers nuts, every bird that makes its nest and every dung beetle who rolls his dung is a capitalist.
The squirrel will share his nuts with his mate and offspring who unite themselves with other capitalist squirrels who will live in the trees that grew up from the nuts their grandfather deposited in the bank of the Forrest floor generations before. None of that involved usury nor greed nor envy. Even the ant, who is no sluggard, in his colony seeks no world order but is diligent in their own enterprise leaving everyone else to their own.
