I don't disagree with this. But I do not believe for one second that all important scientific advances are made public. I honestly think that we should be free of fossil fuels by now, Tesla was working on this stuff in the late 1800's. Of course scientists that have come along since then have advanced his work. So where's the benefit to us? Why are we still using oil? Maybe because the energy companies are bankrolling nations and governments.There's nothing under the sun that legendary scientists from the past knew that current scientists don't and haven't greatly expounded upon.
It might not be how science works, but it's how govenment and capitalism works. If energy is abundant, then they're gonna have a hard time selling it. You know how much money we put in the meters at my house? We're burning around £30 a week, or $50. That's one household. If energy was free, then Southern Electric go out of business, along with every other energy provider. It won't be happening any time soon.
The technology is already there, I'm sure of it. I mean we sent people to the moon half a century ago, yet we can't power the world with sunlight and geothermal?
Listen to that Fresco guy. I'll try to find the link I intended.
