Chaos and World Order

Some, maybe you the reader, would like to think there is a lot of chaos in the world. Your observation may be based on the assumption that anarchy, lack of self-determined governance, access to the country's own resources, lack of free speech and demonstration, and absence of legal franchise leads to the conclusion that most of the free world is not quite free. And then there are those who believe we are better off than people were, say 100 years ago. It depends on which country you are from, and it is quite possible that any one of these observations might be true.
What has not changed, is my observation that while we may over certain periods be "better off" than we were at some other time, we as a race of people are just not well off altogether.
The reason, which I propose to highlight, as root cause of all our problems, is quite shocking and something which would make you shrug in disbelief.
A peep into your high school physics tells you that the most natural state for a particle with a lot of energy is to lose that additional energy and go down to a more balanced natural state. As with your simple electronics gadgets where a potential difference leads to a charge migration, it is but human nature to violently resist being in a high energy state. You can define this kind of energy, as potential energy - a form of energy you get in springs which are happy in their most natural, and relaxed state - however when wound, suppressed under external influence, it gets tighter and tighter, beyond which it snaps and goes back to its original state. If wound too tight, it could break or implode.
We need to make similar decisions about us as a race - we have far continued living in viciously violent socities - and the only reason we are that way is because we have been tightly wound - bound by laws, rules, regulations, emotions & religion. Human beings were successful in their evolution not because of structure but primarily due to the lack of it - when we have a problem to solve, we evolve - something like this is not out of place in today's socities, but our roles have become so straight-jacketed that it doesn't allow for radical thinking.
The best form of society, if given a chance, would be one where we are not bound by laws - death will initially takes its toll, but we would survive - knowing the survival of the species depends on our ability to work together - but for this we need to break down the artificial barriers of today's society. In other words, we need to go back to where we started from...
