Noted Sociologist Ben Affleck: Countries and Societies 'Run by Women Tend to Prosper More'
By Mike Miller | May 01, 2021 10:30 AM ET


Have you ever stopped to think about how fortunate we are to live in a country with an abundance of celebrities who are more than happy to give advice to us common folk, without even being asked to do so? From 9-11 truther Rosie O’Donnell to incisive political commentary from Joy Behar, to spot-on analysis from noted law enforcement expert LeBron James and an enjoyable evening of drunk-tweeting with Cher, we are truly blessed.

And of course, we have Ben Affleck.

During a discussion moderated by former Arizona Republican Sen. Jeff Flake at the McCain Institute’s Sedona Forum on Friday, Affleck, co-founder of the Eastern Congo Initiative, said countries and societies primarily “run by women tend to prosper more.”

Which country has prospered more than any other country in the history of the world?

Was the United States run by women at any time before 2009?

When did American prosperity die?  2009.

Well, Britain actually did do relatively well when it was governed by Margaret Thatcher.

But the "experts" in Hollywood were not exactly supportive of her.

They're more supportive of the bringers of
malaise, selling out to Russia, and importing more Muslim terrorists,
like Angela Merkel is doing in Germany.

Well, there have been few countries in the world where women created the economic conditions for wealth. Maggie Thatcher is certainly a great example of a female helping create a vibrant, economy in a country that was being stifled by unions and quasi-Marxist economic nonsense.
But it's a fact that all the groundbreaking economic theories were devised by men. Were women prevented from contributing their ideas for centuries? Sure, but that's beside the point.
The facts all the great pro-wealth creation economic theories were created by men.
But it sure sounds good to give women all the credit when you're a member of the wokerati like Afflect. And a dimwit as well. I'd like to ask Afflect if he's ever heard of Adam Smith, Ludwig Von Mises, Milton Friedman, and many other male economists who helped devise the miracle of capitalism that changed the world so drastically.

Countries run by people who can stay on the wagon tend to prosper more.
