You have to credit the dems for having a grand strategic energy vision. the pubbies drill here drill now is out of date. what’s needed by the pubbies is a vision the kills the cost of energy and water so that both are 1/4-1/10 current cheapest coal and desalinized water. wind and solar power won’t get you there. only 4th generation portable msr nuclear reactors and MAYBE MAYBE MAYBE one or more of the fusion solutions being put out by a variety of very very respectable players these days. But whereas fusion is always a crap shoot the 4th generations msr’s are a pretty straight shot. And a lot of deep pocketed players are jumping in the game around the world.
