Hi Raghu Briana Oshiro and all other still silent ones,:) Darwin first came up with that theory based on the results of his field observations on the animals if I remember it correctly.
A huge difference between them and us human is that they merely hunt,fight or breed for survival whereas we human sometimes compete for greed out of sense of insecurity even though there are enough resources for everyone. I have been wondering if the fittest are the strongest,the smartest or the best? I myself doubt so because it's not necessarily true. The fittest has to be the cockroach and the rat then! What does that tell you?!LOL There's one expression in English that compares competitions in the business world to rat races.:) If we take music industry for example,the most popular band or singer isn't the best. They lead on the market because the big label is behind them doing all the packaging,promoting campaigns,etc. They may dominate the market for a couple of months or luckily years,then who will remember them in 10 years' time? What does that leave for independent singers or groups? Looking forward to more inputs from you 3 and others as I am still thinking about this question! Thank you and pleasant day!
