The human infant wants to dominate those it is dependent upon. It is natural for the human to want to dominate its environment. The human wants to control the climate, the seasons. Homes are structured to provide summer warmth year round. Food is grown or at least provided as though harvest season were year round.
Storms have no effect, nor do catastrophes have effect.
There is social security, the umbrella of government aid. Floods and hurricanes are but another reason to open the government coffers. All this is evidence that the human wants to dominate its environment. Second, the desire to dominate goes outside of inanimate factors. The human wants to dominate the other humans in its vicinity.
