minus-squareGreenKnight23@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·5 hours ago100 times more resources? wtf are you talking about? fiber isn’t manufactured in the US. manpower has an upper limit of what actually helps. ie: you can’t make a baby faster by getting more women pregnant. if you want to talk about money, Switzerland is literally founded on banking establishments. so what “resources” are you referring to?
