As I mentioned, I’m sorry for the misguided and nitwits who lose their money too. Not the grifters though.

And I’m from a small country and I have no illusion that many people would care much if Australia were leveled and all the people killed by a series of bad earthquakes. There would be sad headlines for a few weeks and then something else would get everyone’s attention. That’s why I was asking about anything at the global scale. Someone replied with the Hormuz Strait, and while small, it does have an enormous global impact. But that was the only such answer I got.

(BTW geologically that’s pretty much impossible to happen to Australia - -it’s just an example).
