Thomas Hobbes, jeden z najdolezitejsich anglickych filozofov 17. storocia bol presvedceny ze ludia maju vrodeny pud sebazachovy. Ma ho kazdy z nas. Vzdy chceme viac a viac a pre to aby sme to dostali a prezili sme schopni, a dokonca pripraveni spravit pre to cokolvek potrebne. Je to ako stav vojny- kazdy proti kazdemu. Ked sa presunieme zo 17.storocia naspet do pritomnosti tak zistime, ze sa toho odvtedy vela nezmenilo. Len to cele funguje trochu inak ako v minulosti. Namiesto toho aby sme niekoho zmlatili alebo zabili vzdy ked nieco chceme, tak len podvazame a intrigujeme.A snazime sa pri tom byt rychlejsi ako ostatni a nie vzdy na to pouzivame svate prostriedky. Svet je ako e-Bay. Nekonecna siet obsahujuca nekonecne ponuky pre ktore ked ich chceme musime nieco spravit. Ludia predavaju, kupuju a snazia sa byt lepsi ako vsetci ostatni. Kazdy den mozete citat v novinach ako nejaka firma kupuje, alebo chce kupit inu firmu.Ak sam nekupujes, budes kupeny. Tak to na svete funguje. Dnes si ako priklad mozme zobrat firmu UTC ( United Technologies Corporation) ktora chce kupit spolocnost Diebold Inc.UTC je zmiesana spolocnost ktora vlastni napriklad vyrobcov helikopter, specialistov na vytahy a eskalatory, tepelne zariadenia a ventilatory a mnoho inych. Chcu kupit Diebold Inc. za 3 miliardy dolarov. Diebold sa specializuje na bankomaty, bezpecnostne zariadenia, hlasovacie zariadenia a kasy. A nechcu byt kupeni spolocnostou United lebo ta ponuka bola nechcena a velmi podcenena.Takze to skor bude nepriatelske prevzatie ako mierumilovna fuzia. Akcie Dieboldu vsak stupili o 60 percent odvtedy. Myslim si ze to je viac nez dobre.Mozno si to nakoniec este rozmyslia.
