you completely made up the link in reasoning that the “countries provide … for their citizens”. how does a country provide quality of life? you took a correlation and filled in the blank on causation, that it’s purely caused by domestic government systems. not geographical, geopolitical, historical, material realities. the “suite of features” shared by these countries is more than just the ones you wanna focus on and ignore all the rest.
what parts of your political discussions feel like that? and why? if you don’t mind me asking.
