In general, though, I think it has to do more with the relative cost of buying a home and raising a family. I couldn’t afford to do it in a major American or Chinese city (I could afford the latter if I was willing to forego an international school, but my wife said no to homeschooling, and I’ll be damned if my kids are going to a Chinese public school, after seeing the soulless- if productive- robots that they produce.), and this is with an MBA under my belt.

Ah, though if you stick around you see what those young 7s turn into. Most of the ones that don’t leave are 3s at best by the time they’re 30. Almost everyone I graduated with is a porker now.

Which is why I married an Asian woman who looks better at 32 than most women can ever hope to at 18.

That’s where I got the data from. Eyeballing the non-European immigrants, about 3% look to be various East Asians, which leaves 4% NAMs. 93% White + 3% EAM + 4% NAM = 100%.

Exactly. I really don’t think there is a France anymore. The future has already arrived. All you have are remnant communities. The future and the energy is all with the immigrants. In Lyon and Marseilles it’s like a boa constrictor surrounds the cities and is gradually tightening its grip. The people in the center try to go on as if nothing is happening. But it’s testament to the failure of their internal software that the squeeze continues indefinitely and no one does anything about it. (What can they do?) Marine Le Pen cannot save the country. She doesn’t have the votes and anyway I doubt the French want to leave either the Eurozone or the Schengen treaty.

” Norway is less than 4% NAM and 93% white”

7% in 2012:

I try my best not to commit them to memory, but the earlier posts are downright spine-chilling.

Currently, the high IQ people are not reproducing because they’re building a career. On the margin, the success of healthspan extension favours them more than it favours the current lot who are reproducing. A high SES couple having 2 children instead of 1 is a 100% increase. A low SES couple having a 4th child instead of 3 is a 33% increase.

If there is serious effort put into healthspan extension and it shows undeniable results, then reproductive rights will become a major political issue, perhaps the major political issue. The fairest solution would be to have these rights as tradeable. This solution can accomodate cathedral weights. let’s say if NAM’s get 2.5 vouchers compared to native whites getting 2, while asians get 1.7. If they are tradeable, then who wants to have children, will have them.

I generally agree, but any particular posts that stand out?

It would be interesting if our host took a look at the archives of View from Hell and posted his impressions here. It’s way more scary than Lovecraft.
