How hard we try to live together

I am at the training centre for elections Ontario for the 10th of October elections. I listen to all manners of fraud that could happen in elections, even in this civilized country of ours, and I think:
How hard we try to live together, despite the selfish animal within each of us that wants to have everything for itself and does not care for others. It is like putting wolves or tigers in a tight cage and expect them to be fair and kind to each other. But try we do, and we are at it for the past 100,000 years. But; we are still so far away from real social animals like bees and ants, or even the society of cells in our own bodies, where there is really a social motto that is followed by everybody without question: One for All, and All for One.
