@nils_gilman Territorially perhaps, but what of the delegation of authority to other states and institutions?

[mikesmith @mikesmithaus]

@QueeniePVTomaro @Griffith_Uni Wow, great find!

Gotcha, if you're unemployed it's either your fault or the result of apolitical market forces beyond anyone's control. Thanks IMF for clearing that up!

[IMF @IMFNews]

What is unemployment? https://t.co/kGB0UoDCdu

Never know what you'll find on your study breaks @Griffith_Uni. Today it was two koalas, a giant python, and several water dragons! 🇦🇺
