with the hopes of buying electricity from it as soon as 2028.

Fusion won’t be ready by then

Energy should be public

energy, water, food and housing should not be used for profit. Everything else is fair game.

Nah, not everything else. You can add healthcare to the list.

[–] ichbinjasokreativ 1 points 1 year ago

[–] LeafOnTheWind 13 points 1 year ago
