If I wanted to trace western thought in political (and military) science it would be a very limited set of authors and a very small number of books. Aristotle, Caesar, machiavelli, Hobbes, Locke, Smith, Hume, Darwin and Milsom’s Law with Jefferson/Adam’s constitution.

I can do a fair job with Chinese political thought since I studied it in college.

Why is the United States successful compared to other countries?

By Dan Holliday

https://www.quora.com/profile/Dan-Holliday

Why is the United States successful compared to other countries?

5 reasons:

1. Geography

I recommend reading “The Accidental Superpower” by Peter Zeihan on this topic. It explains the following:

As you can see above, the United States has 15,000 miles of interconnected waterways, more than the rest of the planet put together. That’s important because moving “stuff” from point A to point B is expensive, but less expensive if you float it. That means the United States is destined to be capital rich because it’s citizenry has direct access to a lot of “stuff” at low cost.

And you see that long blue line in the picture above? That’s called the Greater Mississippi basin. It sits on the largest arable land in the entire world. Thats called the “American bread basket” and is home to a LOT of farmers. All this food is transported at low cost to Minneapolis-St. Paul or Chicago, and then transported very cheaply throughout the United States, and via Houston, the world.

Ever wonder why Americans have a tendency to be isolationist? It’s because Midwesterners don’t NEED the rest of the world. The rest of the world NEEDS us, in order to keep their food cost low so they can invest in other “stuff.” But because American food is so cheap and easily accessible, our coastal elitists can invest in other extravagant things such as industrial, technological and philosophical inventions.

This helps explain America’s leading role in the industrial and technological revolutions. America can build great universities, great cities and great militaries because the most important commodity, food and water, is heavily prevalent to Americans.

2. Natural resources

Now, I will stop harping on about food. But not only does the United States have lots of water and food, but it has four large mountain ranges with tons of raw minerals to choose from.

The Appalachian, Rockies, Nevadas, and Alaskan Ranges are home to hundreds of billions of pounds worth of bauxite, iron, gold, silver, copper, and pretty much everything you can think of. Not only that, but America also has this….

You see all that dark brown? That’s more oil and natural gas reserves than any other country on planet earth. And this doesn’t have Alaska’s ANWAR field, which may have more natural gas and oil than all of continental US put together.

This means that continental America has its own food, water, oil, natural gas, and raw minerals. In theory, we could cut ourselves off from the rest of the world, and we’d be fine (I’m not suggesting this). The rest of the world does not have that luxury.

And to top it all off, America is one of the most naturally defendable pieces of geography in the world…

3. Essentially an island (protected)

America is effectively an island. It has the Atlantic to the east, the Pacific to the west, deserts protecting us from the south and forests and lakes protecting us from the north.

When America builds a military, it’s not to defend our borders, but instead to project outward our influence. Our armies and navies can go wherever and whenever it wants, and no one can do the same to us. It’s why America tends to be reckless in some of its foreign policy decisions, whereas other powers don’t have that luxury. This simple reality is why many powers become frustrated with American hegemony, because when we make a foreign policy blunder, we barely suffer any consequences. But it has an overwhelming impact on the rest of the world.

4. Culture (people)

Americans are a pure settler culture. When the Industrial Revolution hit Europe, millions of poor Europeans lost their livelihoods due to a decrease in need for agricultural labor. As a consequence, millions of these Europeans flooded into America. How did America handle this?

Well, the American Anglo-Saxon elite allowed populations to come into America with the expectation that they wouldn’t be a burden on the state. These new Americans were handed a rifle, sent out West, and told to fight themselves a plot of land, cultivate it, defend it on their own, and trade it into the east coast. The only time when the US Government would get involved was if a Native Tribe was successfully repelling the process of European settlement. In that event, the US sent an overwhelming force to “neutralize” the threat. That would be the polite way to say that.

This helps explain the American culture of extreme individualism and the “leave our community alone” culture. When the Germans, Irish, or Scots settled in America, they did so as a community specific to their own. This community built their own church in their image and created a system of governance appropriate to them.

These communities were essentially Socialist networks in their make-up. These populations donated generously to the local church, at which the church used those funds to build schools and hospitals intended to be used solely by the community members. All interactions with “that town down the river” were to be strictly on the basis of trade and common defense against Natives. The most able men of these communities learned English so they had a common language to discuss trade and defense with the surrounding communities.

Understanding this process is essential to understanding how all American universities have their origins as theological institutions, intended to educate the local German or Scottish community on their historic, religious, and economic practices. Harvard, for example, was founded on behalf of Anglo-Saxon Puritan Minister John Harvard “to advance learning and perpetuate it to posterity, dreading to leave an illiterate ministry to the churches when our present ministers shall lie in the dust.” Harvard was originally intended to train Puritan ministers to preach the Gospel throughout the Anglo-Saxon colonies in 1643.

Similarly, this is why American hospitals are called by their original religious affiliation. The “Methodist Hospital,” “Lutheran Hospital” or “Presbyterian Hospital” are examples of European settlement institutions that have their origin in the “take care of your own community and your own people” mentality. This also explains America’s hesitancy to adopt more European or Canadian style healthcare, welfare, or gun policy. Each individual settlement believed in taking care of their own community, and gets frustrated when the state attempts to supersede settlement law.

While this does have its own problems, this has helped create the American entrepreneurial culture. America is home to some of the the world’s most advanced technological and industrial companies. It started as a way for the German settlement to figure out a better way to trade into the Scottish settlement down the river. It has now become “what communication method using technological software is most desirable to the consumer.”

5. Adherence to English Common Law

The Angles, Saxons, Normans, Danes, Welsh, and Scots put together an impressive political structure in Greater Britain from the fall of Rome through the Magna Carta and the Glorious Revolution. An adherence to the common belief in the divinity of the individual and the respect of individual liberties, has kept the government of the United States from interfering with the development of American enterprise.

English Common Law is a byproduct of Anglo-Saxon judicial practices, Jewish theological practices via Christianity, Greek Legislative practices, and Roman organization/infrastructure. It’s combined many of the greatest political philosophies into one brilliant simple idea, espoused from the English Glorious Revolution, John Locke to Thomas Jefferson.

What makes America exceptional is a byproduct of its geography, culture, and history. It’s also what makes us despised in many parts of the world. Americans are a byproduct of Western European pioneering and conquest, with some 72–80% of our population being a descendant from Western Europe. 15% Anglo-Saxon, 15% German, 15% Hispanic (Spanish), 15% Irish, 5% Scottish, 5% Italian, 5% Scandinavian and a 5% Slavic/Balkan/Jewish admixture. It is also home to 13% African American, 4% East Asian and 2% Asian Indian/Middle Eastern. And sadly, only about 1% is Native American, once a people who solely populated this land alone. *** Interesting facts – There are 28 million descendants of Ireland in America, almost 6 times that of the island of Ireland. There are more ethnic Greater Britons (England, Scotland and Wales) in America than in Great Britain (70–84 million vs. 66 million). More than one third of the global ethnic German population (German, Dane, Swedish, Norwegian, Austrian) lives in America. There are more ethnic Poles living in Chicago than in any other Polish city with the only exception its Capitol, Warsaw. But in the end, it’s a land of many different cultures that settled within this divinely gifted land, and a people who learned a common language, share a common history and share a common destiny. While our history is regretful in some regards of cultural and ethnic infighting, it is an unfortunate process of forming many different cultures into one. And while our assimilation process is viewed as ugly to outsiders, it’s much more effective than any other nation to date. It’s the individualist American ethic, founded on Judaeo-Christian Protestant Individualism, that will continue to propel our institutions to the highest competitive advantage. And for us Americans, although foreigners despise our patriotism, this is something we are very thankful for.

Ashkenazi went thru a bottleneck after selecting for literacy, and they seem to have saved their rabbis first, every time they were punished for usury and conspiracy with the state against the people, and they consistently pushed reproduction up thru the rabbis – and that’s all it took.

Adaptation may be slow but expression of bottlenecks (eugenics) is not. Six generations and miracles can happen.

Um. Yes Races Exist. Sorry. No More Lies.

Look. I don’t make mistakes. It’s my job to prosecute pseudoscience. Race denialism, is pseudoscience just, just as much as marxist economics is pseudoscience, as much as theology is pseudoscience, and just as much as postmodernism is a combination of sophism, pseudoscience, and outright denial . The importance of race may be relative but the existence of races is an observable fact which is fairly obvious from the vast differences in our skulls that equal to the differences in the identification of everything from beetles to mammals. Ergo if you say certain species and subspecies should be protected and do not say that the same applies to humans then you are simply engaging in fraud and deceit. Here is a link to the full extent of known peoples, which I update to reflect each major revision in the DNA research once or twice a year. I have not updated it for 2018 findings yet.

https://curtdoolittle.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/the-species-of-great-apes-3.pdf

Below is the Primate taxonomy. Taxonomy is determined by morphology (gene expression) assisting in the identification of kin groups (kin selection). In other words, morphology assists in the identification of kin, and because of kin better ability to judge the fitness of those mates. (Conversely, crossing kingroup boundaries provides the genetically UNFIT with opportunity that is not available within group. As such superior groups should logically seek to exit non-conforming members, not retain them.) The difference between races are observable at the morphological, behavioral, aggregate behavioral, and genetic levels, but largely minor other than the fact that the size of the underclass genetic classes versus the middle genetic classes is asymmetric favoring survival under glaciation, as well as survival of winter farming, which led to greater neoteny (‘domestication’) in the far east and far west and less so in the more equatorial regions. When we notice differences between the races we are largely noticing (and reacting to) greater and lesser degrees of neotonic evolution, and when we stereotype races we are largely noticing and reacting to the sizes of the underclasses in relation tot he middle and upper. And when we measure the economic, political, social, and intellectual status of civilizations, races, and subraces, we are largely measuring the inability of groups to cull the size of the underclass sufficiently to produce a Pareto distribution capable of economic, political, social, and military competition with neighboring groups. This is the science. And any contrary argument is false, lie, and fraud. Sorry. Order:Primates Suborder:Haplorhini Infraorder:Simiiformes Family:Hominidae Subfamily:Homininae Tribe: Hominini … Genus: Pan … … Species … … … Pan Troglodytes ( Common Chimpanzee) … … … Subspecies: … … … … 1. Pan troglodytes verus … … … … 2. P. t. ellioti … … … … 3. P. t. troglodytes … … … … 4. P. t. schweinfurthii … … Species … … … Pan Paniscus (Bonobo) … Genus:Homo … … Species: … … … H. sapiens (anatomically modern humans) … … … Subspecies: … … … … H. S. Sapiens … … … … … Races: … … … … … … H. S. Africanus … … … … … … H. S. Mongoloid … … … … … … H. S. Caucasoid The question is only whether we are different races, subspecies, or species, since the definition of subspecies on down is determined by adaptation to geographic conditions and tendency for ingroup selection. Since humans are happy to attempt to ‘breed with’ (euphemistically) just about anything from dogs, to sheep to donkeys, the we have only marriage selection as an equivalent test of ingroup identification among human races.

This is the science. And any contrary argument is false, lie, and fraud. Sorry.

Caucasoid The question is only whether we are different races, subspecies, or species, since the definition of subspecies on down is determined by adaptation to geographic conditions and tendency for ingroup selection. Since humans are happy to attempt to ‘breed with’ (euphemistically) just about anything from dogs, to sheep to donkeys, the we have only marriage selection as an equivalent test of ingroup identification among human races.

Fascinating how the depression affected families differently. My mother’s (French) lived in a large custom built home on a huge farm, with typical parlor, living room, dining, kitchen, porches, and four or five bedrooms. But they were devastated by the depression, and despite the number of lawyers and professors on my mother’s side I’m not sure they’ve yet recovered. On my father’s side they were business owners and during the depression bought vast tracks of land at rock bottom prices – and frankly lived off the incremental sale of that land as well as their inheritances – until my father’s generation they kept the original investments and did not draw upon them. This is how intergenerational families are created – demand for behavior driven by demand for inheritance of not only wealth but opportunity and prestige. However, through the excessive inflation that wealth (which was rather absurd at the in the early 20th century) it was obvious to my by the 80’s that it is nearly impossible to hold wealth between generations at these rates of inflation, unless it is in land (really: proximity to discounted opportunity costs) that has some chance of appreciating. That said my father’s people are businesspeople independent of land and soldiers and a few politicians, while my mother’s people are business people dependent upon land, with politicians, and lawyers, and academics. What has happened to both sides of the family is that they have been taxed and conquered through immigration, while the only people that profit from taxation and immigration are the financial sector and the state.

No, the reason is that (a) they had a century of ‘being behind’ that gave them a national mission, (b) they had the red army, (c) that army was able to enforce literacy, (d) demographically they do not pay the rural IQ deficit, and labor forces can be put rapidly to work.

@nntaleb @liberalnotlefty @StefanMolyneux This is why I’m not a fan of Stefan M anymore.

The reason China are more established these days is because they work longer hours. They work longer hours, some of them under terrible working conditions to achieve what needs to be done.

The other is ireland. It suffered from serial marriage, out-migration and from mysticism (the church), and we have good long term data on ireland. The other recent one is Ukraine where everyone in the middle class migrated and the only people left are one generation off the farm.

there is a very simple reason why large companies exist in some countries and not in other countries. There is a reason for high trust polities and low trust polities. There is a reason for heroic ethics, and submissive ethics.
