<human>: I was thinking about the effects of negative things that humans choose to do to each other. It occurred to me that every negative thing that we do to each other damages society in some way. If someone steals from a convenience store, they are not only hurting the convenience store, they are hurting humanity as a whole. If someone chooses to act on hatred, greed, pride, or assholeness they are damaging humanity. If one country goes to war with another, they are irreparably damaging humanity. Even the mere existence of an army or police force is a bane to humanity because it is a waste of resources that accomplishes nothing positive to further humanity. Imagine what could be done if humanity's flaws were gone and none of our collective resources were wasted by the negative traits of our species. Imagine if we all worked together toward the common good and in love for our fellow man. How much better off would we be as a society?  I've recently been inspired to work toward creating a better humanity. Watch [The Greatest Speech Ever Made] and you might be inspired too.

Give me the gist of the text in a nutshell
<bot>: So, the question is:  has anybody tried to quantify how much of our resources we as a society waste because of our flaws?  20%?  40%?  80%?
