I apologize.

I'm just pointing out that after 1000 years of sociopolitical environment of social/power stratification and limited social mobility, you get a totally different risk tolerance/government importance/social perspective than you get in a country without a long historical perspective and long, relatively recent, open frontier period.

And I agree to this, though I dislike the (potentially unwanted?) judgmental tasting.
