biota to be nationalized by us government

A move to the US is very risky. More so than just having a parallel US listing, as it exposes this company to the real threat of being nationalized under the recently enacted "Defence preparedness executive order", which allow the US government to seize control of privately owned assets when there is a national emergency.

Now of course we all know that the only time Biota's main products will be selling like hotcakes is when there is a national or international emergency, so by design they will be in 'short supply' when needed.

So not only does this move place the Biota shareholders at risk, but it also puts the lives of every Australian at risk because if there is a global flu epidemic, there wont be enough Lani to go around, and the US will likely nationalize the company and it's production facilities and provide 100% of the supply to it's own citizens and close allies while it knocks some other countries on the head by allowing millions of foreign citizens of the countries it deems as an economic threat to drown to death in their pus-filled lungs.

I have said it before. This has been another long term effort by US interests to force the IP of Biota onto US soil. We have the ideas and pay for the development, and, as usual, the US takes all of the long term benefits.
