In the unlikely event that fusion power ever becomes available, it will still be opposed by "environmentalists", and will be no safer, no cleaner, and no more reliable than nuclear fission power - which will inevitably cost vastly less to generate.
It's a complete red herring.
If you want a safe, clean, reliable, carbon neutral electricity supply, you can get it from a seventy year old technology that we have already built at commercial scale.
Fucking around with this futile Buck Rodgers shit is just a distraction from getting on and solving the problems.
It's interesting from a pure science perspective, but if it were easy enough to be cheaper than fission, we'd have had it fifty years ago.
Fusion is a desperate attempt to solve an already solved problem, because of a bunch of morons who don't want a solution and who therefore oppose the one we already have. The only reason they're not equally dead set against fusion power is that it has the good grace not to exist, so they can keep building macrobiotic windmills (and fucking the climate up by burning Russian gas).
