In the fairy story of 'Jack and the beanstalk', the eponymous hero sells the family cow for a handful of 'magic' beans. His mother complains that it was a bad deal that Jack was foolish to accept. Though subsequent events proved that it was in fact a good deal, most people will agree that Jack's mother had a point. Initially it looked as if Jack had been conned by an unscrupulous merchant.
The recent conspiracy theories espoused by the late Lady Kahina Tijani Loren suggest that the 'powers that be' have cut a deal for humanity to act as a meat shield between two alien factions for no apparent reward. This makes simple Jack look like a business genius in comparison. Maybe I'm missing something and perhaps something more substantial was offered as reward
