We have such an opportunity before us with the USA dropping the ball.
However, unless you can dig scientists out of the ground and sell them cheap to foreign companies (or give them away), Australia isn't interested

NEW: Peter Thiel has blinked. Yesterday, I posted an article about the "Great AI Bubble". And today, we find out that he's bailed on the market.
Has he cut & run? Or is this some 3-D chess-type voodoo? Thoughts please.

Our biggest threat doesn't need to cross a border to harm us.
From a yacht, billionaires can move markets, pressure govs, dodge taxes & bankroll politicians to rewrite our laws.
The threat isn't the "outsider"
It's the concentrated power already inside.

Except it's about a FUCKING SANDWICH!
Imagine trying to have any self respect after declaring that "sandwiches qualify as weaponized projectiles" is now legal precedent.
