How much money do you think a private school linked to Scientology should get from the NSW Government?
In 2022, the Athena school with only 55 students received total Government funding of over a million dollars.

Interesting that China is put in a bracket with Australia. Cash is all but unknown there now, unlike here.
That chart is well worth studying. Share of daily transactions taking place in cash around the world. As an Australian, I’m very much used to cashless everything by now. I’m still totally against going fully cashless.

"...And blocks entry into carbon trading systems." You'd friggin well hope.
Marine CO₂ removal lacks standardized indicators to quantify carbon removed and environmental impacts. This absence of reliable metrics prevents verification, inhibits investment, and blocks entry into carbon trading systems.

What if the mega-rich suddenly tried to cash out their (mostly paper) wealth and somehow spend it ... or, what if we took it all off them and tried to spend it, for public good? What would happen?
1. The market value of their assets would collapse
2. Inflation would shoot up, to hyper levels.
