We've officially replaced trickle down economy with trickle up economy. Sustaining certain standard of living on private islands in Hawaii, Bahamas, and Fiji is expensive. The phones will be larger though, that's for certain.

What's wrong with plastic national identity documents exactly, are they too heavy, too large, not enough waterproof? With the next wave of broad consent for authoritarianism like during 2020-2022, the new "features" promptly
