    Animals might not understand capitalism, but they do understand the survival of the fittest, and the two ideas are linked. Build the best product that satisfies the biggest demand and you prosper. That’s just like an animal that can outwit it’s competitors and catch the most prey. Mother Nature is an intrinsically capitalistic system.
