When you look at different countries around the world and how the people who inhabit them live, I can't help but believe that genes make a whole lot of difference.

"The US is rich today because of the historical heritage of its European colonizers".

Ditto Canada, Australia and New Zealand.

And yet so many of the people who BENEFIT TODAY, from this, are NOT the descendents of those European colonizers.

The US is rich today because of the historical heritage of its European colonisers.

I would qualify that statement to reflect it is the Anglo-Saxon historical heritage, and it is the fact that the Europeans in the US did not mix in large numbers with non-Europeans. Thus they were more able to preserve the "it" factor of their historical heritage.

Remember Latin America had a historical heritage of European colonisers too. But their Europeans mixed with the indigenous and slave populations on a larger scale. Whatever historical heritage "it" factor they might have had was watered down.

Those on the Left deny the role of genetics. Those on the Right deny the role of the rich.

Both do so because they have internalized the cultural rules of their respective political tribe.

Funny thing is, the rules of both political tribes benefits the rich.

Just a coincidence, I am sure...

This is huge. "There is now widespread agreement that ‘deep’ history matters for comparative development".

It calls to mind that article in Foreign Policy a year or 2 ago lambasting those in development who were beginning to come around to this view.

So they are finally having to concede that it is immutable, and unchangeable, but heaven forbid anyone say its genetic.
