Describing a colony of ants.
They are individual cells, tiny functioning parts of the whole. Think of the society, James, with perfect harmony, perfect, altruism, and self-sacrifice, perfect division of labor organized for preordained goals. Think of the building of elaborate and complex structures according to plans that they no nothing of and execute perfectly. Think of their ability to evolve and adapt in ways that are so beautiful and still so unknown. And all contained in one simple form. So defenseless in the individual, so powerful in the mass.

Ants exhibit a near perfect socialist society. Many of our leaders have the goal of turning our world into one giant ant hill.
