Question: Back then, were the natives aware that the commons are finite!?
I think they use to say thanks to the spirit of what ever they killed and used everything untill there wasn't anything left!. To make sure that nothing was thrown away!. However, didn't tribes have territory fights because they didn't use the commons correctly and so one tribe had to steal from another!?Www@QuestionHome@Com


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Yes!.

Edit: They fought because everybody knew all too well the limitations of "commons!."
What nobody could fathom, however, was the limitations of our needs and how they exponentially increase with population!.
The only thing everybody can agree on is that we like our families and tribes and nations more than other people's, so, naturally, we realize that war is necessary to acquire newer and better commons to provide our personal growth!.

This question needs to be asked in a distant future, when mankind has solved all the problems of hunger and shelter and other needs (or perhaps by such alien beings who stumble upon a deceased Earth!.)!. If you think we're not still warring over "commons," you got another think coming!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

The commons!? What do you mean by commons!? Like the school cafeteria!?Www@QuestionHome@Com
