basically, that is the question of wealth distribution. All the wealth created by these AI companies should be distributed to people so that they will have money to buy products from these companies. This can range from more taxes, UBI, or like Marx said: seize the means of productions (basically nationalize all these AI companies and share the profits to everyone)

It is not charity, these are to protect the US against these diseases. Do you think it will stay there and will not come to US shore?

You have underestimated the soft power that US has by being the leader of the world. Now with more isolationism, things will change and that soft power will deteriorize over time. Who knows what will come next but definitely the US cannot project its soft power like before.

Historic in standard dictionaries (Oxford, Webster) has the h pronounced (IPA: /hiˈstôrik/ ) so we must use A instead of An.

It is different for some other words start with h, for example hour (IPA: /ˈou(ə)r/) that the h is silent and it starts with the vowel sound, so we should use an hour.

This is not just EEZ claim. This is actually territorial water claim which is even crazier.
