Good point about how Canada and nonUS Anglo countries have underperformed the US. I would also consider that the other Anglo countries have worse land use than even the US’s blue states. For example, Vancouver has the most expensive housing relative to income, worse than New York. Housing is about a third of personal income and transportation, which depends on how far you live from where you work, is another sixth. So, it’s a big deal for limiting consumption and investment. Basically, in other Anglo countries, you can’t build anything unless a local committee approves it, and that committee usually can say no or delay for hardly any reason.

To me, Nietzsche is more a mood than a coherent philosophy. It’s a fun mood, like listening to AC/DC when you lift weights. But I’m not sure it says a lot about immigration policy.
