Books aren't supposed to be good, they're supposed to be informative.

When DC collapses

>>14308932
The entire book is worth a quick read. If it cannot hold your interest two chapters in, it simply is not written for the likes of you.

What's the premise of it?

>>14310835
that capitalism is good

i liked the part where he said edison and bill gates were fair capitalists who didn't establish monopolies

>>14308932

DROPPED.

>i liked the part where he said edison and bill gates were fair capitalists who didn't establish monopolies
I cannot remember them mentioning this. Where can I find this?

This is the problem with you continental retards. It isn't supposed to sound good you fucking fairy-tale seeking ass peter pan syndrome ass teenage boy fucking ass suicidal ass increasingly irrelevant ass intellectually dishonest ass conty faggot FUCK

If I were you I’d be careful in what I wished for. A collapse of the US government would lead to a prolonged period of anarchy; the elimination of social restraints would likely spell doom for trannies such as yourself.

how could bill gates have a monopoly when microsoft didn't manufacture the hardware? ma bell made and sold the phones too

>>14311415
Microsoft isn't a monopoly. Almost, but not completely. You have a billion different versions of GNU/Linux, and there's Mac. Plausible deniability and so on.

At least we can return to Great Power politics in Europe and I can finally witness based Russia wipe away the stain left by communism, and maybe the rest of Europe will finally be forced to grow a backbone and start acting in its own best interest.

When your nation fails.

Doesn't this book completely ignore biological/ evolutionary/anthropological theories?

>>14313770
it doesnt give a shit about that stuff, it goes so far as to look at why a village on one side of a river thrives while the other starves. Or on a larger scale, why costa rica has nice beaches and happy brown skin people serving you fruity drinks and el salvador/nicaragua/honduras are hellholes. Or why you can go on safari in botswana or nambia, but FOR FUCKS SAKE DONT GO IN THE CONGO

>>14313770
you mean like murray's jerkoff IQ pseudoscience?

>>14308932
I'm putting it out there , if this book doesn't name-drop (((them))) than it's not worth a read

>>14314164

nah based china and the EU would team up to keep the peace and implement a good boy social credit system globally which i have been slowly working towards improving since modern surveillance technology has all of our words and actions and movements and thoughts and ideas recorded and logged for future reference which will have a retroactive effect on said good boy social credit points

Costa Rica is far and away the whitest of those 5 countries. Like 88% self-identify as white and about half of them actually are white. The area had basically 0 natives, so overwhelmingly settled by pureblooded Spaniards, and had no black slavery, so any negroes are recent imports. It's successful because it's full of whiter people than the rest of those countries. ES/HN/NI are all overwhelmingly mestizo, while Guatemala is about half full-on natives.

Argentina is the whitest place on the continent and also a bigger failure than even Venezuela

>>14317072
Argentina is a failure due to populism.

>>14308932
Useless. If you want a book about why civilizations fall, read the "Essay on inequality of human races" by Joseph Arthur DeGobineau

>>14311510
>conty
Your argument has been invalidated

>>14314850
Die bitch.

>>14313770
Yes. It also ignores the other big reason for nations failing, the CIA starting a coup and installing a military dictatorship.

>>14311631
having a large sell of a market doesnt mean youre a monopolist. it means you are more effective than a large array of hypothetical competitors

>>14308960
>prolonged period of anarchy
dont threaten me with a good time

>>14320633
I hate the CIA and every one of those fucking glow in the dark NIGGERS so god damn much. What an awful organization. If every single one of them dangled from a light pole the world could only possibly improve. Dislike them intensely.

The Microsoft Monopoly concerns date back to the 90s during the Clinton administration. Less relevant now
