Higher education institutions worldwide exhibit a pronounced left-leaning bias primarily due to their structural dependence on large government. Public universities rely directly on taxpayer subsidies, while even elite private ones receive massive federal research grants, loan guarantees, and regulatory favors. This creates powerful incentives to support expansive government: more spending sustains enrollment via student aid, funds bureaucratic growth, and aligns research agendas with state priorities in climate, equity, and regulation.
Faculty and administrators, insulated by tenure and public-sector-like employment, internalize the worldview that justifies their funding model—favoring redistribution, identity politics, and skepticism of markets. Dissenting views threaten grant flows and institutional prestige tied to government alignment. Globally, from Europe to Latin America to Asia, state-dominated higher education reproduces this pattern, as independence from Leviathan remains rare. The result is ideological conformity masquerading as expertise.
Gad Saad, Professor of Marketing at Concordia Quebec, quotes E. O. Wilson (Edward Osborne Wilson), the renowned Harvard biologist and professor” “Karl Marx was right, socialism works, it is just that he had the wrong species.”

American Highschoolers try REAL British food for the first time!
In today’s episode we visited an American High school to see what they think of British Comfort Food! — Josh & Ollie @JOLLY
Approximately 80–85% of the USA’s founding stock (the European-descended population that established the country by the late 18th century) originated from the nations of the United Kingdom/British Isles — primarily England, with significant contributions from Scotland (including Ulster Scots/Scots-Irish), Wales, and Ireland (then under British rule).
This figure is based on the 1790 U.S. Census and scholarly estimates. Among the roughly 3.2 million European Americans at that time:
- English and Welsh: ~60–64%
- Scottish (direct and Scots-Irish): ~15–16%
- Irish (mostly Protestant): ~5–6%
- Total from British Isles/UK nations: ~80–86%
When leaving the large coastal cities aside, the share becomes even higher — often 85–95%+ in rural, interior, and non-coastal regions (New England countryside, Appalachian backcountry, Southern Piedmont, etc.). These areas were overwhelmingly settled by English, Scots-Irish, and other British Isles groups, who shaped much of early American culture, law, and westward expansion.
The remainder of the white population was mainly German (~9%), Dutch (~3%), and smaller groups. The founding stock refers to the colonial-era core population (pre- and around 1790) and their descendants, not later immigration waves.

By contrast, non-coastal, rural, and interior regions –Great Lakes Midwest, Mountain and High Plain Heartland, New England countryside, Appalachian backcountry, Southern Piedmont — were overwhelmingly British in founding stock:
- New England states routinely showed 93–96% English ancestry (e.g., Connecticut ~96%).
- Scots-Irish settlers dominated the Appalachian interior and backcountry South, forming a major cultural stream distinct from coastal planter elites.
- Pennsylvania was an outlier with more Germans, but this was concentrated in certain counties rather than uniformly coastal.
- Western Michigan was the destination for Dutch expats who were driven out of New York City boroughs.
- Upper Peninsula Michigan drew Baltic/Hanseatic populations from Scandinavia
Excluding the large coastal cities therefore makes the UK-origin share even higher — often 85–95%+ in the rural/interior “heartland” founding population. These interior groups (English Puritans/Yankees, Scots-Irish borderers, etc.) were the primary expanders westward and shaped much of early American culture, law, and demographics outside the ports.
In the American experiment, race has proven to be the one constant that outlasts ideology, economics, and time itself. Understanding our roots and our branches is made easier through food.

Today we break down the stack of regulations, codes, standards and open-source literature governing the safety and sustainability of university-affiliated medical research and healthcare delivery facilities. Because of the complexity of the topic we break down our coverage:
Health 200. Survey of all relevant codes, standards, guidelines and recommended practices for healthcare settings.
Health 400. All of the above with special consideration needed for obstetrics, gynecological and neonatal clinical practice and research.
We limit our interest to systems — water, power, telecommunication and security; for example — that are unique to campus-configured, city-within-city risk aggregations. Electrotechnologies (voltage stability, static electricity control, radio-interference, etc.) in these enterprises are subtle, complex and high risk. Sample titles from legacy best practice literature in this domain are listed below:
American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists: Levels of Maternal Care
Provision of Care, Treatment, and Services standards for maternal safety
Since our interest lies in the habitable spaces for these enterprises we usually start with a scan of the following titles:
International Building Code Section 407 (Institutional Group I-2) identifies requirements specific to healthcare settings, covering aspects such as fire safety, means of egress, and smoke compartments. Maternity and obstetric facilities within hospitals fall under this classification.
K-TAG Matrix for Healthcare Facilities
NFPA 70 National Electrical Code Article 517
NFPA 99 Healthcare Facilities Code
NFPA 101 Life Safety Code Chapters 18 & 19
ASHRAE 170 Ventilation of Healthcare Facilities
Relevant Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers research
Towards Deeper Neural Networks for Neonatal Seizure Detection
A System to Provide Primary Maternity Healthcare Services in Developing Countries
Deep Learning for Continuous Electronic Fetal Monitoring in Labor
Reorganizing of University Hospital of Oran’s operating theatre: Simulation approach
Finally, we collaborate with the IEEE E&H Committee on the following IEC committee projects from IEC/TC 62 Electrical equipment in medical practice:
– Common aspects of electrical equipment used in diagnostic imaging equipment
– Equipment for radiotherapy, nuclear medicine and radiation dosimetry
– Electromedical equipment for neonatal care

A relatively new publisher of related standards is the Facility Guidelines Institute. We are monitoring its catalog and its processes. The healthcare facility industry is likely large enough for another non-profit but we have yet to see meaningful leading practice discovery and promulgation that is unrelated to the literature that is already out there.
