Participant[quote=briansd1]It also interesting that most Jews vote for Democrats. Jews are arguably the wealthiest population in America.
It’s also interesting that Mormons vote for Republicans. The church is wealthy, the Mormon people not so much.
Japanese-Americans, another wealthy subset of the population, tend to vote for Democrats. Chinese-Americans also lean democratic.
Vietnamese-Americans, a poorer subset of the Asian-American population vote Republican.
In the deep South (as opposed to the peripheral south), poor Christians vote Republican.[/quote]
it is also interesting brian will always be able to find a Republican vs Democrat angle with every topic. 🙂
kinda like someone else on this blog will always be able to squeeze something in about the evil of MR/HOA.

Participant[quote=walterwhite]i believe in my heart that the healthiest thing is lots of interbreeding, going far afield to mix your dna. i know this sounds kind of cold, but it seems better for producing dogs, so why not people?
[/quote]
interbreeding will certainly produce stronger and healthier population. we can see in dogs that a lot of “pure bred” breeds have intrinsic issues with health. for example, a lot of dalmatians are deaf and skin issues very prevalent. bull dogs suffer from respiratory problems. these are all human created problems by selectively inbreeding within a small population to get a breed, which lead to high prevalence of these conditions.
we can see the same for humans as well. the royals of Europe really messed themselves up by inbreeding with each other, resulting in high degree of hemophilia. the ashkenazi jews have the same problem with a whole host of genetic problems like tay sach and cystic fibrosis. one can say the same about blacks. by breeding with another african american, the risk of sickle cell is that much higher.
we definitely see physical advantages with interbreeding. now IQ? we can probably infer that as well, although that topic is filled with landmines…

The home is extremely dark inside. Very little natural light comes into any room. The kitchen/livingroom/great room floor plan is very awkward as the kitchen bar “straddles” both rooms. Almost all of the landscaping in the rear is dead or dying and the overall condition of the interior/exterior is rundown. You can’t base your judgement on numbers and square footage alone. You should also consider the actual condition once if you’ve been in and out of this home. Some of these things can be changed and/or improved with work, time, and $$$ but you can only do so much to a home to make it into a different home before you’ve actually just rebuilt that home.
P.S. Anyone putting an offer on that home should stop by Costco first and get a palette of Clorox Disinfecting Wipes to rid every surface of the “ick” and residue. Some air fresheners wouldn’t hurt either.[/quote]
this is the classic example of why flippers are still around and will be forever and ever. a lot of buyers out there are just like this, unable to see a gem even when walking right inside of one. this is when typically a flipper will walk in, offer a low ball, get accepted, then spend $10k to tidy things up, including purchase of some Clorox disinfecting wipes. Then put it back on the market a month later for instant 6 figure profit.
meanwhile, I do believe there’s a Montoro with “free woodchipped front landscape” with ahewitson’s name on it…

Participant[quote=walterwhite]I now recall buying a book called the cryptojews of new Mexico. It describes catholic Hispanics who do Jewish rituals for reasons they don’t understand, just because the familys done them for generations. The theory is they went so far undercover in Spain that the family eventually forgot it was Jewish but some physical ritual lived on.[/quote]
NYTimes had an article recently:
inflammatory bowel disease is generally genetically linked in Jews. But occasionally a Hispanic would be diagnosed.
much like Dupuytren’s contracture, very much a Scandinavian disease. but occasionally you’ll have a “Russian” or a “Pole” diagnosed with it.
