The interaction of scarcity (actual or created) and human desire for control over our environments, which may or may not include other humans within it, leads to an apparent tendency for resources to travel down a conceptual funnel toward a gravity of concentration and thus control. At certain ideal levels of concentration, several resources can interact to make possible the creation of additional value. However, runaway concentration can lead to sequestration of resources to the point that they lose their broader usefulness for society. This visualization illustrates this idea.
