That's good, but as long as the burgeoning fusion industry is run in a competent way ( i.e. not in the horrific way the fission plants are run, which is essentially huge taxpayer-funded write-offs to corperations.)

Well, fusion is far far more economically viable than fission.

Fusion could also lead to commercializing the moon due to Helium 3.  This could also become an international fight over land mineral rights on the moon. Plus environmentalists won't like strip mining moon

Hey, it'll get us back into space.
