Dec 31, 2019, 2:49 PM The Secret of European Civilization is our common, Natural Law of tort under individual sovereignty, reciprocity, contract, warranty, testimony (truth regardless of face), before judge and jury of our peers, creating no option for survival other than competition in markets in all walks of life: association, cooperation, production, reproduction, commons, polities, and war, at the cost of limiting reproduction of the underclasses such that surpluses can be directed to the production of high cost, and high return, normative, cultural, institutional, and physical commons. This is the optimum strategy for defeat of Nature’s Red Queen, Group Competition, and achieves the most rapid transcendence of man, maintaining the optimum condition of man, by institutionalizing the development of agency: human capital. And no other people has, or demonstrably can, or even desires, to do it.

—“The thing in Latin America is that the people do not treat each OTHER very well especially when it comes to money. Gringos are very honest about money as a rule, and locals love them for it.”— Michael

Family History. Small Numbers. War.
Jan 3, 2020, 6:50 PM Continental Army 1775 George Washington … Right Wing … … 1st (Ward’s) Division (Major General Artemas Ward) … … … (Six Regiments) … … 3rd (Spencer’s) Brigade (Brigadier General Joseph Spencer). … … … (Six Regiments) … Left Wing … … 2nd (Lee’s) Division (Major General Charles Lee) … … … 5th (Sullivan’s) Brigade (Brigadier General John Sullivan). … … … … Doolittle’s Regiment, or 18th Massachusetts Regiment. (Colonel Ephraim Doolittle.) … … … … (Plus Six More Regiments for a total of seven) … … … 6th (Greene’s) Brigade (Brigadier General Nathanael Greene) … … … … (Eight Regiments) … Reserve … 3rd (Putnam’s) Division (Major General Israel Putnam) … … 2nd (Heath’s) Brigade (Brigadier General William Heath) … … 4th Brigade (vacant) (commanded by Putnam because Seth Pomeroy declined his commission) There were 688 men in a colonial line regiment. This total consisted of 8 infantry units of 86 men. The colonial rifle regiment would have 680 men. This was 10 units of 68 riflemen. 6+6+7+8 = 27 * 680 men = in theory, 18,000 men Over 230,000 soldiers served in the Continental Army during the American Revolution, although no more than 48,000 at any one time. The largest number of troops gathered in a single place for battle was 13,000. The majority were from new england. (Colonel Ephraim Doolittle is my 5th grandfather, or 4th great grandfather. He was a captain in the army under General Amherst in the French War of 1755, and served under him at the capture of Ticonderoga and Crown Point. The Revolutionary Regiment was disbanded at the end of the first year of battle (congress).) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colonel_Ephraim_and_Sarah_Doolittle_Farm ) I’m making a point here about numbers….. You don’t need many.

The Grammars of Civilizations
Jan 5, 2020, 4:52 PM Europeans Develop Competition-law, Reason, Realism, Naturalism, Empiricism, Technology-Science, Geometry. CALCULATION Chinese Develop Bureaucracy-rule, Reason-lite-Wisdom Literature, Realism, Naturalism, Technology but not science, and Arithmetic. They settle on Reason and Bureaucracy. ~REASON Indians Develop Class Roles, Political Reason, Supernaturalism, Mythicism, Pragmatism, limited technology, arithmetic and positional names. That this is the remnant of a military order is lost in time. The indians settle on “the Way” – wisdom literature. REASONABLENESS Iranians-Persians Develop the optimum human, Hierarchy instead of Castes and Roles. But are seduced by babylon and their own aryan religion. The are ruined by the muslims and despite, like the Germans, rising out of it, descend once again and they can’t get out of it now (similar to how the west is being brought down again by Judaism and islam). IDEALS The Egyptians Run with Animism and Archtetypes and Myth and it’s beautiful. They try a single dominant god but the priests wisely reverse it. MYTHS The Jews Invent the abrahamic method of deceit by combining DICTATORSHIP LAW OF PARASITISM The Arabs DICTATORSHIP WISDOM LIT OF PREDATION
