Strong family units, parental teaching, enforced reading and cultural community ties is the number one consistency among high IQ and top income ethnicities. Jews have consistently had more books despite income than Christians. Same goes with Chinese, Japanese, Korean, German, English, etc cultures compared to their counterparts.
Along the same vein, these people are never forced to choose between actual starvation and making better decisions. There's always a safety net right there. It's not the pretty, glamourous one they want in their socialist government, but it's there. I'm in Texas and you see people on the news 24 hours into a winter storm that don't have any food. 24 hours, really? Suggest they could have been better prepared and they can't because <insert some leftist hardship here>. Being prepared is for the rich. It doesn't matter that if these people would cut back one pack of cigarettes a week or one Starbucks coffee they'd be covered. You can't ask them to do that. Instead you are supposed to swoop in either as taxpayer or charity and save them.
We've entered an era where evolutionary pressures are no longer present, so all the organisms that are unfit to survive are instead thriving and ruining the evironment we inhabit. God forbid you point that out because then they'll all get together and call you a monster to get you thrown out of society.
We can't run away from this problem. We have to find a way to fight it.
This isn't actually possible.
Evolution is a process that happens on systems that can reproduce and mutate. You can't stop it. You can only change the criteria on which it operates, but even those criteria are still subject to fundamental natural forces.
You know what he meant. The evolutionary process has shifted away from the preservation of the human species in a sustainable and healthy capacity.
never thought of that but that is very true
Other than this retarded bit, it's an interesting post.
It doesn't have to be welfare. What's essential is the shifting of the tax burden away from a group or tax spending towards a group.
Of course, I'd argue that's the way it's always been. A ruler remains in power by taking things away from his political opponents and giving them to his supporters.
Stares in single mom, south Americans/Mexican and black people for the last 60yrs
I agree with you on the reason but the consequences are correct as well.
