DOES NATIONALISM COME FROM? KIN SELECTION. **Kin selection.** Family, Kin, Kith,
https://www.quora.com/Where-does-nationalism-come-from/answer/Curt-Doolittle?share=9e7a51b3WHERE DOES NATIONALISM COME FROM? KIN SELECTION.
**Kin selection.** Family, Kin, Kith, Tribe, Nation, Race. Humans remain tribal. We reside in tribal groups. We mate in tribal groups. We create friendships in tribal groups (often within very narrow genetic distances). We work in tribal groups. We organize reproductively, socially, economically, politically, and religio-militarily in tribal – meaning kinship – groups.
There is political value in the attempted utopian-socialist era we still live in, to create a mythos of universalism. But this survives is only because man is a rationally self interested creatures, and the lower classes will choose the female reproductive strategy (universalism) under alpha-threats, and choose male reproductive strategy (tribalism) under threats from competing underclass threats.
This explains all of world political tensions at the moment.

impossible, since democracy is only capable of selecting priorities among people
https://www.quora.com/How-does-a-President-lead-a-country-fairly-and-democratically-with-so-many-people-having-mixed-agendas-ideas-and-opinions/answer/Curt-Doolittle?srid=u4Qv&share=08163832It’s impossible, since democracy is only capable of selecting priorities among people with homogenous interests, and impossible to select between conflicting choices among people with heterogeneous interests.
Markets let us cooperate on means despite different ends – no monopolies.
Democracy is a monopoly in which we cannot cooperate on means because of different ends.
Democracy has been a catastrophe.
The original anglo model was not democratic but consisted of different HOUSES for each CLASS, including the CHURCH, so that Monarchy, regional managers, personal property owners, and common people(church) could negotiate EXCHANGES between the classes.
The English system created a market under which most can be satisfied. Democracy destroyed it by creating a monopoly under which no one can be satisfied.

cannot be given, they can only be discovered. Lawgiving is logically impossible.
https://www.quora.com/Why-shall-we-ignore-any-human-law-state-king-president-judge-or-lawgiver/answer/Curt-Doolittle?share=37a5b2caLaws cannot be given, they can only be discovered.
Lawgiving is logically impossible. One can issue commands. One can negotiate contractual provisions on your behalf. But one cannot create law, only command, legislation, regulation, and contractual provision.
There is one natural law, that can be stated in the positive or negative, but must be stated as both positive and negative. (I’ve written too much on this today and don’t want to repeat myself, so I’m not going into detail.)
Obverse: – The silver rule (Natural Law – the negative ) do not do unto others… etc.
Reverse: – The golden rule (Natural Rights – the positive ) do unto others only what …. etc.
There is only on moral law that these two rules are derived from:
Obverse: – negative: impose no unwanted costs upon that which others have acted to create, obtain, and inventory, whether life, kin, mate, relation, property, norm, or institution.
Reverse: – positive: limit your actions to productive, fully informed, warrantied, voluntary exchange, limited to externalities of the same criteria.
In other words: “do no harm” is the one law of human cooperation. Because harm is what causes retaliation, breaks the peace, reduces trust, increases transaction and opportunity costs, and reduces the quality of life for everyone in the vicinity as a consequence.
These laws are geographically, demographically, culturally, normatively, institutionally, traditionally, independent, and provide universal decidability in all matters of conflict, whether participants like it or not.
What differs is the only the in-group contracts in the forms of property, laws, norms, traditions, institutions, territory and monuments. But within group this rule still applies.
Ergo, you only listen to a command when its either in going to benefit you, or when ignoring or contradicting it will lead to your harm or punishment.
Otherwise, there is no connection between commands and the only necessary laws: objective morality, natural law, and natural rights. Do no harm, seek no involuntary gain.
