Guess there's not many folks spending money to lobbying for that.
Well, not nearly as many as the opposite, therefore private industry is likely where it will arise.

Alternative fuel sources will undoubtedly come from private industry.

Same for a viable alternative to fossil fuels.



I mean, France produces a shite ton of nuclear energy. They produce something like 72% of their power needs from nuclear, and another 20% from renewable power like hydro and solar and wind. The French have actually been trying to limit their gas consumption since the 70's, after the oil shock of 1973.

They also export power to neighboring countries. Something like 15% of their gross power production is exported.

That is very interesting. The price of their utilities make zero sense then.

French fry futures fell fast for family funded fast food franchises. French friends/ families found fancy fry flavoring fueled feverish feelings feeding fast famine-like frickery . Finally, forward-thinking folks found fire, flames, fists forced fair fight for families.

They want all the "free" shite but don't want to pay for it

This is slowly becoming popular in this country too

Scruffy holds the same general mindset about certain research and technology, like space travel.

The research itself is integral to our survival and should be one of the most heavily federally funded projects.


Scruffy is wrong and stupid.

Not surprised you’ve not heard about it. They’re rioting to protest the absurdly high fuel prices that have resulted from the Socialsit president of France raising taxes to comply with the Paris Climate Accords (the same ones Trump pulled us out of).

Since theses riots run counter to the globalist progressive agenda, like the good propaganda agencies they are, the US mainstream media is ignoring them.


This. This is a very inconvenient news story for America's media elites.
