    I tell ya what. We just claim the monarchy, and issue passports under the monarchy, and issue separate passports to those who aren’t under the monarchy, and pay our taxes to the monarchy to act on our behalf.

    The most difficult problem appears quite trivial. That is, do we and can we maintain the separation of civic education (religion) and economic education (the grammars of calculation), and craftshmanship (the trades), or do we restore the relationship beween civic education, economic eductaion, and craftsmanship? Because this turns out to be a rather difficult problem of converting the church, or converting the academy.

    However, this doesn’t turn out to be true.

    Free-Market is a code word for:

    1 – all government non-interference trade by taxation.

    2 – all governmental non-interference in trade by policy

    3 – socialist government interference in the organization of production, distribution, and trade.

    In the **developing world**, this translates to:

    1 – on one hand, ‘the reduction and elimination of corruption’ and

    2 – on the other hand ‘the privatization of common resources’ by internal members, and ‘the exploitation of common resources’ by outside members.

    In the **Developed World** translates to:

    1- Forcing all post-war nations to grant human (natural) rights (property rights), rather than territorial expansion (growth by warfare).

    2 – Forcing all post-war nations to compete entirely by meritocratic production distribution and trade, so that survival is dependent upon being a good market citizen of the world, thus reducing the chances of another world war.

    3 – (Failed Hypothesis) By encouraging democracy (which appears to have been a universal disaster) citizens both 1 and 2 will be brought to bear out of citizen’s self interest. (Despite the fact that communism and islamism are hostile to meritocracy.)

    **This is America’s postwar policy in a nutshell.**

    Add to this policy the unstated threat that ‘*You can Choose your own government under democracy but if you choose poorly we will punish you so severely that you’ll be back in the stone age.*”

    The problem is that America promotes the CARROT but doesn’t mention the STICK. And it turns out that Authoritarian State Capitalism, which is just monarchy at greater scale, is superior to democracy in every case OTHER than small homogenous protestant nation states where everyone is a sixth cousin at the outside.

    YES WE ARE WINNING
    The tipping point was probably the Supreme court. But we are winning. Now we need to keep on the pressure, keep re-normalizing nationalist speech, and see if the left doubles down on violence which gives us an excuse. They will do something. For certain. But without the court they are effectively powerless.

    THE TWO PARTY SYSTEM NEUTRALIZES IQ DIFFERENCES

    • In both the U.S. and Denmark intelligence failed to predict standard party choice.
    • This was due to opposing effects of intelligence on economic and social ideology.
    •Denmark’s multi-party system allows non-standard representations of party choice.
    •In Denmark, significant systematic intelligence differences observed between parties.

    Intelligence is rarely studied as a predictor of vote choice, and at first glance our data supports this neglect: In samples from the U.S. and Denmark (Ns = 1419 and 953), intelligence does not predict the standard operationalization of vote choice in which parties are placed on a single left-vs-right dimension. (Standardized coefficients predicting right-wing vote choice were 0.05 and −0.03, respectively.)

    However, this apparent non-effect in fact reflects approximately equal and opposite effects of intelligence on vote choice as transmitted through social and economic ideology. In both countries, higher ability predicts left-wing social and right-wing economic views.

    The impact of intelligence on vote choice is thus most visible in true multi-party systems like Denmark, in which parties do not simply pair similar levels of social and economic conservatism, but instead provide diverse combinations of social and economic ideology.

    Comparing the parties closest to representing authoritarian egalitarianism (social-right plus economic-left) and libertarianism (social-left plus economic-right), we observed a 0.9 SD intelligence gap.
