  1. It is what you get for your tax that matters.

  2. The Japanese have up and running high temperature nitrogen cooled reactors. The high temperatures produce hydrogen very cheaply. The Japanese say that only hydrogen can replace fossil fuels for industry. Hence Japan is moving to a hydrogen society. Notice that Toyota have been cool on EVs. If in summer solar and wind are producing a surplus of electricity the electricity can be used to produce hydrogen and stored. The hydrogen can be used for zero emission trains, and making electricity in high demand periods. Also natural gas can be a 20% mix without any adverse effect on existing burners. so emission of natural gas are reduced. Gas does not have road and rail transport costs, which also pollutes at present.

  7.  @christiancevallos9820  The Covid-19 vaccine came from a university which is not private. Oxford. Private healthcare is always a disaster, look at the USA, as are all private monopolies.

  8.  @christiancevallos9820  The USA gvmt spends more on healthcare than the UK per capita. Search Youtube for Sicko. The USA medical system is a shambles. How not to do it.

  9.  @sssuperkana4354  But what do you get for that? That is what matters. Finns have a higher standard of living than Americans with a superior educational system.

  11. Capitalism impoverishes more than it elevates from poverty. It creates world-wide crashes and boom & busts on a regular basis. It is totally exploitative. When faced with competition doesn't fare very well. True competition is it's nemesis.

  12. So we have solar/wind and backup fossil fuel powers stations. All fine, as it provides a continuous supply. As the backup plant may not be used for most of the year. As these backup plants will be used little they will last far longer. Matt Ridley seems to think this bad. How odd.
