As time goes by humans will hopefully realize it's in our genes to cooperate for the best interest of ourselves and others. We are gradually stepping into a world where cooperation is the main lesson taught in schools, utilized to the fullest in governments, highly appreciated in the work force, and a natural behavior trait we can take time to parade around in the halls with joy with a gazillion other selfishly selfless human beings. Competition should be treated like a bottle of wine; take too much you'll become a drunkard and lose control but, if you drink it sparingly and you can avoid dancing on the tables and attempting to do karaoke of "I Will Always Love You" by Whitney Huston (have fun fitting the high note :)). Enough about getting intoxicated from the materialistic rewards of being competitive, it's in our nature as humans to not compete against one another, even though through evolution mankind has developed a desire to instead strive to be better than one another.
