See, now this is the tech I would understand pouring billions into. Give every nation on earth a durable copy of the last 100 years of medicine, physics, biology. That's what a reasonable ruling class ought to do.

At least give them to the nations which aren't currently trying to ignore and undo the last 100 years of medicine, physics, and biology. (Sorry, United States.)

Once you have the tech fully worked out, the budget to make them is going to be cheaper. Easier for all nations to get their own

if they were reasonable, they wouldn't be a ruling "class"
