Have you looked into my background? I know all about how the how the system works. I am not looking to avoid hard work.

As for why Bill Gates I specifically said I am looking for people with the clout to make this happens - while I am sure Bill would understand my proposal so would lots of other smart people.

I don’t wish to be snarky, but yes you have misunderstood my proposal.

Sorry, no I didn't look at your background at all. My comment was basically reflexive because people are constantly trying to skip the middle steps of getting the attention of super high profile people when I see those incremental steps as the only reason the system can continue to function. But there also has to be ways of escaping the system when very good or novel ideas come around. Like maybe yours.

Wish you the best in your efforts and please don't let comments like mine dissuade you from any possible route to helping get us out of this mess.

> people with the clout to make this happen

You said you are in Australia? The Australian government has the clout to make this happen.

But we don’t have the cases. I am not the Australian government, but if you happen to have the direct line to our PM I will be most happy for you to make a call and set up a meeting.
