*"And they will make money from that technology as well. The cost of that R&D will also soon be recovered. What is your point?"*
You stated that power produced from LENR will be virtually free, to cheap to even meter. If all the existing industrial infrastructure is immediately trashed by LENR, where will the R&D money come from. Your posts do not add up. Where will the R&D money come from: Not from Wall Street or from venture capitalists; they will be bankrupt by LENR since all their industrial investments in other thing will be immediately made worthless by LENR. Like most business experts and advisors, you wave your hands and avoid the details. Money is money. Yes, It is fungible and the government can print all they want. Is that where this R&D money will come from: the government? I do not think government funding for LENR is wise. If Rossi immediacy puts all of his industrial competition out of business, were will his competition came from, and how will it be funded? I read your posts carefully and apply logic. These resent posts on R&D funding do not pass the logic test. They are idealistic and unreasonable as in a dream. These posts do not reflect the way business and R&D is usually carried out. In your world, LENR will be limited and stunted by a lack of competition; and the money needed to build that competition. In your world, Rossi uber alles.
