DE-regulation, or the abandonment of rightly regulated and principled life, is the fundamental individual and collective fault of humankind. In their adventure of the pursuit of egoic "self"-fulfillment through egoic "self"-indulgence, or un-regulated and boundless consumerism, human beings have personally and collectively destined themselves to chaos and death, That global idealization of the idea of universal de-regulation has now achieved its almost terminal end-time.

The cultural (and political, economic, and social) basis of the current world-crisis is that EVERYBODY in the world is now trying to live like Westerners did when Westerners were able to exploit all other nation-states and all of the Earth-worlds natural resources for the sake of an un-regulated and boundlessly "self"-indulgent Western society. Everybody in the world is now competing, in a dreadful situation of confrontation, for what has now become a very limited reserve of human and natural resources---like dogs competing for the same chunk of meat.
