Rudyard’s correct (as usual).

Think, instead of linearly, in cycles of opportunity and exhaustion (just like the market), with creating ups and downs, and if we’re lucky at least some progress.

Great example. A video I shared today, shows the research on the genetics across the rise and fale of the Roman empire. So genetic capital was built, social, knowledge, technical, political, and military capital built, then the accumulated capital was consumed.

Including the genes – they went up by 2SD in the period that made the gains possible, they retreated by 2/3 from the dysgenia (hyperconsumption, exhaustion) that resulted from roman expansion.

If Lynn was correct and it seems he has been, we are crashing the genetics, social capital, knowledge capital, political capital, technical and military capital by burning through it – and burning through it apparently by the politically unpallatable topic of the result sof the introduction of women into the voting poool, the pill, the end of responsibility for interference in mariage, and the lagging of our laws to protect against female antistocial-antipolitical behavior as thoroughly as we have male.
