Is there something magical about our dirt? That countries like Haiti, Guatemala, Syria, and Zimbabwe do not have access to?

Is it our laws or Constitution that seperates us? Interesting enough many of these countries were initially setup with our exact, word for word Constitution.

Or perhaps, was it the people who setup our original Constitution and founding? Could it be something special about them that created the circumstances?

Does creating more people like them serve to preserve the original Constitution? Or are we just as likely to preserve it simply by importing anyone from anywhere on the globe such as Haiti, China, Africa, etc.?

It's selective breeding due to many circumstances intentional or unintentional.

The enemy knew that unless they demoralize, re-educate, and dilute the primarily native-born population of the post-WWII United States, that they wouldn’t have a chance in hell of defeating us.

So they did/are.

WAKE UP BEFORE ITS TOO LATE.

Imagine if America was only the 13 colonies. The rest of America was still Spain or France or Britian. We are lucky and have tons of natural resources and enough space for industry. Small countries do not have this.

The world has developed around Western culture (and its institutions, ideals, culture, etc.). This development requires a certain societal developmental path. If you skip steps, you increase the risk that your underlying population isn't prepared for the next step in development, which can lead to devolution. This is what you see in all the failed former colonial states that came around during industrialization.

Other factors include market-based colonialism (like banana republics), commodity dependence, and external conflict (which isn't always a function of internal issues).

Respect for the rule of law and protection of private property.

Our people on average are way more intelligent. And, we were founded on Christian principles, which lends well to a civilized society

Once you understand evil and history going back to 1776, then all the events there forward none of this is surprise. It’s quite clever , and evil. Know who you are and what you stand for….focus on what matters

Nope, they actually don’t have the same constitutional government we do. As far back as the mid-19th Century, immigrants have come to America because of its freedoms
and economic opportunity, neither of which are matched in immigrants’
country of origin.

It's definitely cultural. Nobody bats an eye when a kid struggles because he comes from a broken home. Or because he's growing up poor and malnourished as a result.

When you scale this to a societal level, a line apparently gets crossed somewhere along the way and pointing out cultural issues becomes "racist"

As mentioned in other places, these countries typically have corrupt governments, fragile economies, and a high % of the population that struggles to make rational decisions because they are worried about their next meal.

It's always the people, albeit malicious 'rulers' at the top of a particular cultural ideology, politics and/or religion can essentially manipulate the Culture and therein the people, toward their desired ends.

If one chooses to believe in the God Paradigm, then one accepts the premise that God controls everything re "the hairs on your head are numbered", nws the 'free will' conundrum. Such 'control v free will' is rationalized/justified as Truth in that both can and do indeed coexist, as God knows the future re what free-willed individuals will choose, but signs off on it, and therein lets people experience the consequences of their free-willed choice.

Per the above, THE most important aspect of our whole spiritual and worldly societal dilemma is WHY would God put some people in a 120 IQ brain and a stable and loving family, and another in a hellacious childhood scenario. If God is true to it's professed Word (Truth), then the criterion for such is that an individual will "reap according to that which they sew". We ALL agree that such is Just, but many - given their dire circumstance - ignore it and embrace evil to further their own desperate and selfish ends.

Bottom line: the essence of Religion is the idea that we live beyond this single life, albeit in a 'new' form...and that such form will be determined not by the willy-nilly Will of God, but by God's Promise to that which He/It created...such being OUR belief and action. Karma principle, in effect.

If desperate people being born into hellacious scenarios BELIEVED that they will exist in another and much better life IF they go all in on being a more loving individual in this life, they and all of humanity would be on the road to 'Heaven'. But if desperate people do not believe in another and better life...guess what...massive Envy, "Cain and Able" and horrendous "wailing and gnashing of teeth".

While it is true that we cannot "legislate morality", it is further true that the kind of Culture which the 'Rulers' create will be the determinative factor as to societal prosperity re "the pursuit of happiness".

Coerced DEI is fool's gold, IMO. It seeks to assuage Envy by equalizing outcomes, and denying the essential idea of MERIT for extraordinary effort, while offering reward for minimal or no effort. God's Word warns of this: "Behold, there is a way which seemeth right unto man, but the end thereof is destruction". We'll see what AI has to say about this, pretty soon. That will be interesting. I can't wait to ask it about Jesus.

Day by day we are finding out that no, we don’t have magic soil or magic anything. We had a people and a set of beliefs.
That’s gone now. And our rights are being decided by 9 people in robes who will all be “progressive” within a generation.

Soil is a key to our success. The US has more fertile topsoil than any other country...and it ain't close. It's due to our very short history of plowing. The Indians didn't know how to plow.
Other countries have been tilling their soil for 1,000s of years and it's worn out.

Founded by Protestants from the British Isles(England, Scotland, Wales, and Ireland) then to a lesser extent Germany, France, and the Netherlands who were industrious people who hated monarchy.

That is our core, our magic soil to say and it has been eroding for over 100 years.
