Current Events And Politics Explained

I'm posting this article for an important aspect of our social environment. The political background and implications should be obvious.

Note the article's paragraph with "We didn't have enough people to operate our EOC..."
and
"...barely enough law enforcement and nurses ... we can't do it".

Of the 3 thousand plus counties, parishes and Alaska Native Corporations, in the US, Jones County, North Carolina, like the rest (less those with casinos) is surely not under taxed. The funds are going somewhere.

I write this to emphasize to prepare for realistic, worst case disasters with the focus on self-reliance involving yourself, your family and your survival group,

"Men who are physically strong are more likely to have right wing political views"

Men who are strong are more likely to take a right-wing stance, while weaker men support the welfare state, researchers claim.

Their study discovered a link between a man’s upper-body strength and their political views.

Scientists from Aarhus University in Denmark collected data on bicep size, socio-economic status and support for economic redistribution from hundreds in America, Argentina and Denmark.

The figures revealed that men with higher upper-body strength were less likely to support left-wing policies on the redistribution of wealth.

But men with low upper-body strength were more likely to put their own self-interest aside and support a welfare state.

The researchers found no link between upper-body strength and redistribution opinions among women.

Professor Michael Petersen said: ‘In all three countries, physically strong males consistently pursued the self-interested position on redistribution.

‘However physically weak males were more reluctant to assert their self-interest – just as if disputes over national policies were a matter of direct physical confrontation between individuals.

‘While many people think of politics as a modern phenomenon, it has, in a sense, always been with our species.

‘Political views are designed by natural selection to function in the conditions recurrent over human evolutionary history.’

The findings were published in the journal Psychological Science.

Professor Petersen added: ‘Many previous studies have shown that people's political views cannot be predicted by standard economic models.

‘This is among the first studies to show that political views may be rational in another sense, in that they're designed by natural selection to function in the conditions recurrent over human evolutionary history.’

The Argentinians just elected a Libertarian president.

The socialist mainstream media is having a tantrum over that victory.

 

His #1 goal is to attempt to repair the Argentine economy. That economy now has non-sustainable inflation. The new guy has says that he will immediately get rid of pie-in-the-sky government social programs. We'll see if he does.
