Convicts Bloods Dominant in Modern Australia!

             (John Harland’s post from the QUORA on 17 February 2020.)

The so-called First Fleet of eleven English convict ships brought convicts, marines, and their families from Britain to Australia, arriving in January 1788. The primary purpose was to establish a penal colony to relieve overcrowded prisons in Britain. The fleet carried between 750 and 780 convicts, and their arrival in Sydney Cove marked the beginning of European colonization and the transportation of convicts to Australia, which lasted until 1868. 

“Has the gene pool in Australia truly been affected by the fact that a certain number of convicts were sent there as settlers?” It had a strongly positive effect. The people who were sent represented a far broader genetic range than the relatively inbred gentry of Britain. They were also people whose ancestors had faced more-rigorous selection pressure than those living in relative luxury.

Their designation as “convicts” resulted from circumstances. Many were refugees in their own country, having been thrown off the land of their ancestors through the Enclosure of Lands, where the local lord decided that broad-acre agriculture earned him more than having smallholders each farming part of the land.

Trade War: The Victims are the US Soybean Farmers

              (Stuff post from the FOX NEWS on 25 September 2025.)

Minnesota soybean farmers can usually count on big paychecks about this season, but this year, they’re deep in the red because they’ve lost their biggest buyer due to trade war triggered by the idiot Trump’s crazy tariffs. China usually buys $12-$13 billion in American soybeans each year, but it’s now buying from Argentina and Brazil instead.

In the short term, most Minnesota soybean farmers will harvest their crops and either sell them at a loss or pay to store them, or a little of both. But they can only last so long with income at or near zero.

China is a large country with a serious lack of cultivated land. After nearly 5,000 years of development, China has only about 100 million hectares of cultivated land. Therefore, grain crops must be given priority, such as wheat and rice. Therefore, the food imported into China is mainly soybean and corn, and their purpose is mainly for animal feed.
