<It is very tricky and requires a lot of mental, emotional, spiritual and Physical (Health)l balance... for those who take overseas assignments.... > Perhaps it was balance, but my various overseas efforts were pleasant and even easy. Certainly enjoyable and very interesting. Not to mention financially rewarding. Maybe some people are suited for such adventures and enjoy them and others are not and fear them. It's not so much the strong rolling over the weak as the weak falling by the wayside [the weak include the unlucky]. <you realize that life is an one great big ongoing Intelligence test.... and that really fits into the Darwinian concept of the strong simply rolling over the weak.> In bygone times, it was the strong versus the weak in zero-sum conflicts for territory, found wealth and mating rights. These days, the world is mostly synergistic although there is parallel play competitive conflict in which an ineffective business will go broke while one providing better services will succeed. One business does not go down the road and attack the employees of the others. Customers are attracted to one rather than another. That is increasingly the case in international relations too, with hordes of people voting with their feet and their money, no longer bound by nationalistic xenophobic borders. As the USA goes Greek, people will vote with their feet and money for better opportunities. Women meanwhile, continue to conduct their highly successful eugenics programmes, giving the Darwinian thumbs down to 10% of males each generation. Eugenics by government is bad, but by women is good. China has got a huge surplus of males so the relatively few women can do and are doing major scale eugenics action in China, giving the thumbs down to hordes of hopeful but hapless young men. China's intelligence per individual is in the process of a significant increase as a result of the one-child policy. Mqurice
