Could it be that we have a population __less than 2%__ that of the USA? 
Similarly, could it be that Australia's GDP stands at a measly 
USD440billion, compared to the USA's USD10trillion? After all, we're 
talking about supporting (read: paying for) a massive infrastructure 
investment of a size only relatively smaller than in the USA.
