It's a Hydraulic Empire.

There is a theory that says this: many ancient empires gained totalitarian control by controlling water. This was true in Egypt and China and other places. The Pharoah or Emperor could simply shut off the tap and a rebellious area would wsither and die from famine and thirst. You didn't oppose the Pharoah because he controlled the water.

What we are seeing in modern times is an attempt to reimpose this same sort of system, only using energy. The Left wants energy to be restricted and regulated so they can shut the flow off if you don't obey them. They can't do that in an energy-rich society. There MUST be scarcity to justify control and regulation of power.

Energy is the determinant of wealth in the modern world. So they have to get us hooked on "renewables" which they know are inadequate and then they can regulate who gets energy and how much. Then they own you. So we are going to bottle up good sources of energy, refuse to use them, and instead employ scarce, intermittent forms which they can then throttle back. That is the game here.

Nuclear is a bad thing for them because it gives exactly what they claim to want - a carbon-dioxide free energy source. They either ignore it or complain about nuclear waste, which is only dangerous because it is doing exactly what we want it to d - putting out power. It could easily be harnessed. But it's not acceptable because it is reliable,w hich makes it harder to throttle back. Then with expensive, scarce energy people will have to move back into the cities and ride public transit and live in crackerboxes. That is the future our liberal masters have in mind for us.

The Energy in Nuclear Waste could Power the U.S. for 100 Years, but the Technology was Never Commercialized
