@HeavenlyPossum Just imagine what poor communities around the world could have built with that money. Even if extremely mismanaged, I would much rather have 80 billion going to a small aqueduct that provides clean water to just a few hundred people that need it than some idiots fantasy world aimed at wasting peoples time.
