Competition is warfare. Warfare is cruel and ruthless. It depends on subterfuge and treachery. It's objective is total victory, achieved by destruction of an "enemy".

Cooperation is constructive. It is not cruel and ruthless. It depends upon good communication and honesty. Its objective is progress and improvement, achieved by combined effort.

I am in favor of any changes in the political system...AND in American foreign policy...and in economic policy...and in social policy...which would focus on cooperation rather than competition.

And in so saying, of course, I am proposing something radically different than the aggressive, competitive approach presently dominating western society in almost every field of endeavour.
