  Balaji’s vision is a software solution for a hardware problem. He treats the world like a set of interconnected servers: if one &quot;node&quot; (The West) is lagging, just migrate your data to another node (Dubai/Singapore).<br>But humans aren&apos;t data. We require food, water, and physical safety. The &quot;Network State&quot; is, in many ways, an attempt to build a gated community in the cloud while forgetting that the cloud runs on servers located in buildings that can be hit by missiles.

  How in the ell does one activate the liquidate, emigrate, accelerate when there is elderly family/children that you are bound by ,love, loyalty and conscience to take care of, so Balaji’s answer is to take care of yourself and cut and run on your roots, your family, your country, that’s what I’m hearing. I do agree that the heart of US is eating its own by splintering into many ideological factions.
