yah that's an interesting angle, the default is corruption. This mirrors that line of thinking with poverty, which is the default in the state of nature is poverty. Just humans standing about trees and rivers and all the natural resources they start with and choose how to direct and shape from their own free will.

That's an interesting angle to take I'm going to have to think about that a bit.
