What is weird is that EU's Mexico (Poland) has extremely healthy growth. Why is EU so good for development of poorer members, while NAFTA isn't?

Mexico is stuck. No one in Latin America wins any growth awards, but everyone is growing at least a little bit, even Brazil that stagnated for a long time. Not even huge Tren Maya investment fixed this. Time for an honest conversation about what's wrong... robinjbrooks.substack.com/p/mexicos-grow…

Europe at night, 1992 vs 2010. Ireland used to be as dark as Eastern Europe. Effect of war in Croatia and Bosnia clearly visible. Non-Soviet commie state much darker than Soviet ones.

Are these numbers from Carter era? There are countries that don't exist for the last 3 decades on this graph...

Indeed! 'Heritage Americans' (British, Dutch—'Founding Stock') are among the most right-wing White people in the U.S., only being outmatched on that metric by Swiss Americans, many of whom are descended from a group of classical liberal immigrants: The '48ers!

But this is actually good because it means housing doesn't go exclusively to unproductive. Social housing should in theory go to everyone except the really well off, otherwise you are getting ghettos.

How broken is housing in France? 70% (!) of households are eligible for social housing, 4 million people are on waiting lists. People now pay bribes to skip the social housing queue

Interesting thing about African catholics is that they still give all Saints names, including random medieval ones. There are guys in Cameroon named Engelbert.

Romney fucking lost. People can like how they look and how they speak, but not what they speak.

Despite everything you hear from loudmouths on Twitter, most Americans just want someone like Romney on the ballot. Trump succeeded in 2016 and 2024 because his opponents had high negatives (unlikability in the case of Hillary and a lack of seriousness in the case of Kamala).
