With respect Zach, if you're looking to advances in nuclear fusion or any other large scale energy projects to fuel our giant economy, you voted for the wrong people. Democrats continuously block any efforts to propagate those technologies, while feverishly and naively pushing nothing but wind and solar. In addition, we still also need oil. Lots of it. And we have alot to power our economy while finding other long term tangible solutions like more HTGR's and such. Democrats and their enviro-lobbyists block all of this.Your vision here is total pie in the sky.....especially coming from such an avid democrat voter. Your people will never give you what you envision here. Not in a million years. It is actually Republicans who push advances in nuclear and other realistic means of power.
