The function of morality is a healthy community, thus it tends to be that dictates that apply in-group, don't apply out-group.

The problem is that humanity is reaching the edge of the global petri dish and we have to develop a more nuanced understanding of the relationships between the individual or communal organism and the ecosystem that supports it, aka, the world.

Consider that as executive and regulatory function, government emerges as the nervous system of the community, while money and banking function as a form of blood and circulation system, balancing resources around the whole community.

Yet while we have evolved enough to understand government has to be some form of public utility, much as our nervous system is connected to every part of our body, the same principle applies to banking.

Since with public government and private banking, the banks rule. So the flunkies allowed in office really only have one job, to run up the public debt the banks need to grow metastatically. The secret sauce of capitalism is public debt backing private wealth. "The real money is in bonds."
