    In your guys opinion, is that good or bad? Privately funded would mean proprietary & profit driven implementation for such a crucial technology (if successful). I personally don’t like it.

      The CPC still maintains a lot of influence over companies even when they’re getting their funding from private industry as part of their “politics in command” strategy for controlling market forces. We’ll see how it plays out.

        Yep, if they need to disappear a CEO, no matter how big, they can and have done so in the past.

            Not to an Amerikan cosplay-capitalist lmfao. (I call them cosplay-capitalists because not a one actually owns capital; they just lap at the scraps that fall on the low-quarters of the c-suites they worship.)

      Any path that takes us to unlimited clean energy is the right one IMO. We could always do a little espionage and make our own domestic fusion drive eventually.
