Whats funny to me as a biologist is that while everyone, including myself, have used that communism works for a hive mentality type of argument, its not even perfect for ants. Because of its rigid nature, hives are very slow to adapt to new threats. There are insects who mimic the signals that ants use to communicate, and then they feed off the hives food supplies or the ants themselves. Being they are programmed for one kind of response, the ants are helpless.
