If you read "Why Nations Fail", you'll see why pluralistic nations are more economically prosperous.

yes, 40% suicide rate in athiest LGBTQ scum are happy and prosperous

Now you're taking her idea too far.

@Deleted User Based on progressive standards, Progressive nations are doing better than everyone else

correlation does not imply causation.

No, have you read the book?

It's not based on progressive standards.

So PCPPP is a progressive standard?

^

Or do you not know what that means

How is "economically prosperous" based on progressive standards?

Would love to know

In WNF, they explain that it's hardly because of culture or geography that nations fail, but because of their political institutions.

like how kicking out nonwhites from a nation would be "a massive damage to population and birth rates", therefore making your nation "economically inprosperous"

Lol

Ok let’s hear it

What do you envision would happen if you kicked out non whites

do you want FBI crime statistics or what

No, that book does not talk about that.

That’s their point though, it’s what they’re arguing

In the book, one example made is N. Korea and S. Korea, where the former is worlds apart from its counterpart. N.Korea is an isolationist homogenous nation because of famine, political repression and changing economic institutions. Whereas in S. Korea, they've made a society that supplied incentives, rewarded innovation, and allowed everyone to participate in economic opportunities. The economic success thus caused was sustained because the government became accountable and responsive to its citizens.

Hence why a mix of command and free market is good

"what would happen if you kicked all the muslims out"
hungary: lowest islamic population.... lowest islamic terror attacks

germany: welcomes increasing islamic population, rape epidemic and needs concrete barriers so trucks don't drive over christmas markets

The state creates incentives for people to invest/innovate, this is supplied through funding of education and infrastructure, and the state is held accountable by its citizens rather than a monopoly that is handled by a small elite. People in politics must establish institutions and laws which work for the majority of people. I agree with some of this.

It’s always been the case

somehow as if not having muslims immigrate to hungary has protected it from terrorist attacks

The Roman Empire was prosperous when it was pluralist, it fell when it became exclusive

Rome, conquers more than it can handle, has to divide itself... hella exclusivity

In fact the foreign emperors revived the empire multiple times

GG @Platinum Spark, you just advanced to level 26!

There’s a reason fascist ideology is aligned so well with incels

It comes from a place of weakness by people who are unsuccessful and feel entitled to a lifestyle beyond their skills and education

The authors say that countries like UK and USA are wealthy because their citizens overthrew the elites who controlled power and created a society where political rights were much more broadly distributed, whilst a country like Egypt was ruled by a narrow elite. Even though Egypt also went through the revolution in the Arab Spring, it was not the same thing because the people they put into power afterwards did not give the citizens more political rights or made it possible for everyone to participate in economic opportunities.

@Platinum Spark Gentile's fascism is true fascism

"entitled to a lifestyle beyond their skills and education"

like welfare recipients? lol

or what, women in a cozy office job who make half of what men on an oil field make?

or people flipping burgers who want $15/hr

that's grand

maximum projection on your part, I commend you
