From the same place as it comes for his Great Arch, a reform of the Reflecting Pool, a grand ballroom and data center bunker underneath it. Plus all those banners which adorn the government building, just like in China and N Korea. We pay the cost, but reaping any rewards will be in what the conglomerates can make from it for us to buy.

I long for the days of Research for the pure unadulterated joy and discovery of research.
