Are there ties that bind us?

@TheOneyouwerewarnedabout Our laws are what bind us?

you think we'd be united in a lawless world?..

@TheOneyouwerewarnedabout Historically and statistically, yes. I don't refrain from stealing because it's against the law. I don't steal because I don't want to be stolen from. It's innate in us as social creatures to be (for the most part) in a "live and let live" state, or a mutually helpful one.
