You do realize that the creation of infinite free fusion power will not reduce your powerbill one penny, right?
Better stop scientific advances then
Shit, all we get is limitless, carbon free energy?
I'm not sure what you mean by infinite free fusion power.
Don't care. It'll still be cool to have a star powering up my gaming pc
Now this is just vibes based... But I imagine "functionally limitless high output clean energy" would probably solve the "supply side" of the "supply and demand" equation pretty quickly. More, cheaper, cleaner, energy would certainly be less expensive to the consumer than less, more expensive production.
