For the last 10,000 years, the tools of agriculture have been in the hands of man.
And for these same 10,000 years, men, civilized and bent into agricultural labor and war, have lived as the tools of one predatory aristocracy or another, wealthy on the plunder of laborers in their fields.
The «tools» used today are things like the so-called TPP, backed by massive weapons arsenals and ultimately, thermonuclear devices, cf http://www.icanw.org/the-facts/nuclear-arsenals/….
