Organization and complexity have slowly increased from the time that macromolecules began to assemble in the primordial soup. One has to ponder the existence of an inexplicable principal that is in direct opposition to the 2nd law of thermodynamics that drives evolution toward higher organization. Not only have viruses been extremely efficient at propagating their own genetic material, they have also been responsible for untold movement and mixing of genetic code between other organisms. Variability of genetic code is arguably the driver of evolution. Through the expression of variable phenotypes, organisms are able to adapt and become more efficient in changing environments.
Oh, I am dumb. Corporations are a wonderful expression of the 2nd Law Too bad my chariot lost a wheel and dropped out of the race to mediocrity.
