Rational

  3. If resources were plenty, this would trigger the evolution of parasites.

Examples

  • Cancer is the development of cheaters at the multi-cellular level [Error: Wrong macro arguments: "http://zotero.org/users/438144/items/NBAD4X5V" for macro 'ref' (maybe wrong macro tag syntax?)] .
  • Some social cheaters are well characterized and societies found way to protect from pirates, thieves, and fraudsters.
  • Other social parasites are still under fierce ideological debate.
