That's completely wrong ! The world is not increasingly craving for an unlimited source of energy at all ! Its scarcity that makes people rich, not abundance, not efficiency, not egality, our world today is DRIVEN by planned inefficiency, volontary waste and artificially maintained scarcity. The world economy would immediately collapse if we were to turn ourselves to efficiency. GDP is just a mesure of inneficiency and failure, we get +8Billions GDP a year because more people are getting cancer.

Are you seriously suggesting me to start digging up my back yard in search for thorium, separating it from the earth with boiling acids in my bathtub, and then start melting thorium-infused salts in my pressure cooker?

They want China to have it... so here, the middleman can make a profit.

We traded LFTR for the bomb (and now, we trade LFTR for fossil fueled GREED).

Are you implying that the world needs rich people? wrong, if you paid any attention to current events you would know economic inequality is causing the problems of the world and on a further note trying to become rich promotes economic inequality.

A very good point, well made. Refreshing to have a constructive reply without resorting to abuse or obscenities as is so unfortunately typical here on YouTube. :)

Thorium = Correct.

@Cythil: Nukes. Thorium didn't win out against Uranium before because it couldn't be weaponised effectively. Pay attention.

@420Harlequin: Most anti-nuclear people are either ignorant or crackpots (maybe both). No problem with hippies though.
