Hydrgogen can be used as a fuel, simply by burning it. No need for fusion. Alchol takes very little energy to produce. Alternative energy sources are expensive mearly because they are not m!@#$%^&* produced, once things are m!@#$%^&* produced their price drops dramatically. We would already have alternative energy sources if the oil industry didn't own the American goverment. What is really needed is a total revamp of American politics, meaning that goverments are not funded in main by industries which make their money from oil, and hence the goverments are obliged to implement pro oil policies, if they want funded for the next election. They can't fund research into alternative fuel sources because of this. Also, your poli!@#$%^&*ions need to be prohibited from owning shares in companies which would be negativly or positivly effected by desisions made. Nearly the entire Bush political team are funded and own shares in big industries which depend on oil. Because of this America is the most poluting country in the world. Your goverment refuses to implement laws meaning oil consumption goes down, such as making cares more fuel efficient. America is -*BAD WORD*-ing the world over because of it's -*BAD WORD*- political system. The only reason your president is even in power is because many thousands of blacks were stoped from voting in florida, because they had similar birth dates/names/social security numbers as convicted fellons, who are not alowed to vote. Blacks predominatly vote democrat. They were stoped from voting by Jeb Bush, a brother of George Bush. Also, when votes were being recounted (Al Gore would have been found the winner) they were stoped, by the supreme court, and the members of the supreme court who stoped it? Personal Friends of groege the 1st. After reading about the election, and the policies implemented by your "elected" presidents, i was frankly amazed that such things would be alowed to happen, without m!@#$%^&* protest. In summary america sucks, move to scotland.
