Answer the First, Pt2: The reason we pool our assets(and I mean everything from land to $ to resources, etc.)into a communal pot is (theoretically) based on our desire to achieve more as a group than we could individually. This notion expands outward to encompass all that a nation does economically. Including all the potential issues of interacting with other similar national groups performing their own experiments, hoping to optimize their well-being.
