The marketplace, like ecosystems, can self-regulate but aggression disrupts balance and diversity.
The marketplace has many similarities to nature’s rain forest and oceanic ecosystems. Left to their own devices, the marketplace and the earth’s ecosystems are self-regulating.
Neither requires our forceful intervention to establish a holistic balance in which a diversity of complimentary niches can evolve.
Aggression in the marketplace or destruction in a natural ecosystem upsets this balance. Some of the niches are destroyed along with their occupants. Diversity is lost.
