Yep. And we inherited those traits to a degree.

Drive and available cash flow are very much unrelated. We are
an enigma. We have a huge prcentage of driven, breeding with
driven, over a couple centuries, why do you think we drive
innovation above most nations, all nations on a mean. The
facts on the slave elements mentioned are we bred physical
traits from the success negative element fom them. That
statement sounds like something from a white supremacist
garbage can. But sometimes truths sit in garbage cans.

Hmmm. I think history would prove that attitude and drive
is not
genetic. Or at least the fact that the riches of a family
seldom
stay in the family past a couple generations would lead one to
believe that genetics has little to do with success. That
is an
interesting position. Genetically diverse yes, predisposed to
drive, success, or any other positive trait, I don't think
so. It
seems to me that the evidence points to nurture over nature in
this regard.

people flocked to the us, my grandfather walked across

to get to a boat to come here. That's not uncommon among
immigrants, even the current ones from South of the
border and
South of the borders border that have walked here.
We took Africa and Irelands people @nd bred the best stock
over and over. The US is in fact genetically superior
to the
rest of the planet because we have the rest 9f the planets
best genes.
Our nutjobs, even they are superior genetically. Fuck

Racist? Sure. Bigoted? Many. But I thrill to watch
the US
in the Olympics as it is one of few countries you
cannot
determine by race.
Will the rest of the world be worse off when we
fall? By
that time, probably not. We have already outlived most
government's and are a bit long in the tooth.
Sure, others
have long histories and the same names but not the
same
government's.
I am proud to enjoy it while it lasts knowing
nothing ever
stays the same and that no matter what I want or
do I have
no control over it. My grandchildren, if I am so
lucky,
will have a completely different America to live
in than I
did from my grandparents. Most of that is likely
to be an
improvement.
In a republic we have few to blame but ourselves.
We all
deserve the government we allow to rule over us.
Enjoy the
ride my friends. It ends the same for us all.

the US is

there are many other large and
