Polywell fusion

soviet technology tends to be shittier but since they both don't work it doesn't matter

This is literally what happened in the DoE in the 70s. Just lobbying. Try to tell people this and they think it's a conspiracy.

>>8709447
don't worry, only the idiots don't know that happened. so like almost everyone doesn't know.

Worked on a takomak but stellerators are the new thing (it's been shutdown since)

this isnt even close to the real reason that fusion was never funded.

the real reason is that if fusion becomes a reality and it gets miniaturized as was predicted then any random shithole country would eventually be able to make doomsday weapons at will.

How does owning a fusion power plant get you any closer to building any kind of "doomsday weapon"?
After all, if all you want is fusion you can do than in a garage with a thousand dollars. The hard and expensive thing is trying to produce useful power, which presumably isn't a concern for weapons construction.
