Ukaraine’s focus on infrastructure - especially Russia’s oil & gas infrastructure - is getting more focused and more effective.

And, of course, we all know about the Strait of Hormuz and how one of the main accomplishments of Trump’s War was to give Iran leverage over oil/gas and petro-chemical shipping through the Strait.

What if?

What if there were energy sources that made Russia and the Strait of Hormuz irrelevant?

What if there were energy sources that were “decentralized” and therefore not subject to being attacked to paralyze an enemy’s ability to generate energy?

What if there were energy sources that did not require the United States to spend billions to project power all over the world to protect its own energy sources?

What if there were energy sources that actually increased our national security instead of making us more vulnerable?

What if there were energy sources that were not “commodities” in the sense they are not subject to market manipulation, world events, and nationalist goals of foreign powers/producers?

What if there were energy sources that were not so capital intensive that they led to oligarchic and monopolistic practices by mega-corporations?

What if there were energy sources that could be scaled down to become available and affordable to individual homeowners, giving Americans more freedom to choose their desired energy supply (that’s real "FREEDOM”)?

What if there were clean energy sources that, when coupled with ever more efficient storage (battery) technology, made them as reliable as traditional dirty energy sources?

What if there were energy sources that were infinitely available and didn’t pollute the planet?

What if?
