| | | You're simply incapable of focusing on a specific question, instead, try the usual duck, bob, and weave with your personal collection of irrelevancies..
Are you even aware that our poor have better health, generally longer spans and superior material comforts than the richest mere generations past?
Are you aware that is because of the development of what's called capitalism? That nations prosper over time in direct proportion to the degree of free market discovery allowed by their ruling classes? That minimizing the influence of those ruling classes is one key to success?
That your treasured Nordic countries benefited from disruptive innovations found in more vigorous areas, while retaining some favorable characteristics such as their work ethic. That Norway, with their now disappearing oil reserves, was able to escape what is called the resource curse. Do you know what the phrase means?
Are you aware that Switzerland, one of the best governed countries in the world, only gave women suffrage just over forty years ago?
The written word indeed eventually played some part in the escape from the war of all against all, where life was nasty, brutish, and short. Mankind stumbled along for near three millennia before the Scots, Brits, and Dutch evolved an order capable of putting that tool to good use -- along with many other.
Are you aware that your prescriptions always lead to inferior results, at best, more often misery and death?
Damned shame that stuff in your brain pan is calcified. Otherwise your influence might not be similar to a cholera strain - and for similar reasons. |
