It is not genes per se. It is cultural mindset (and the definition of "culture" is not limited to country--certain mentalities/mindsets are prevalent among members of certain groups).
As Malcolm Muggeridge once famously said on an episode of "Firing Line" with Bill Buckley, "I regard liberalism as the great disease of our society." He's correct.
He's an amazing intellectual, I was shocked to learn that he used to be a Marxist, but on the bright side that means people can't accuse him of not understanding Marxism when he shreds it in his books
Lol i have to say that Thomas Sowells book "basic Economics" was the only 600 page book i was ever excited to read.

T. Sowell is a household name. But, as it were, no household is equal.

Liberalism is the politics of victimhood. Crybabies every one. Liberalism is a mental disease.

The fact that Thomas Sowell is not a household name is a shame. Sowell is truly an American treasure.

So true, I've been reading his bio recently
He's an amazing intellectual, I was shocked to learn that he used to be a Marxist, but on the bright side that means people can't accuse him of not understanding Marxism when he shreds it in his books
