Inertial confinement fusion experiments have only one purpose - nuclear weapon test simulation. Nothing they are doing has anything to do with generating electricity with a sustained fusion reactor.
Any politician that doesn't support this should be immediately subject to an intense financial audit. The tax system in the US was designed by accounting companies for accounting companies. If you normal individuals have to pay for help to do their taxes and to file electronically, the system is broken.
Meanwhile, they are literally eating significant amounts of radioactive fly ash from the eleventybillion coal fired power plants in China, right next door. Nothing like a little Thorium and Uranium to spice things up. Half-life of Tritium is about 12yrs. Half-life of Thorium is 14.05 billion years...
