Sounds like both of us rephrase the same priority list, or at least nothing either of us wrote breaks the priority list:<p>1st) Freedom or self determination or at least less control over their lives by people far away<p>2nd) Racism (people want their leaders the same color as they are)<p>A distant 3rd) Measurable statistical demographic numbers for quality of life, like disease rates, death rates, crime rates, economic activity, education levels, etc.<p>I would propose this priority list is human, cross cultural, doesn&#x27;t matter if its Rhodesia, Haiti, India, Korea, people naturally seem to come up with this sort order no matter the culture.
