That exact paragraph your quoted is the one which stood out the most for me, as it explains so much. If solar really would be doable, then all of Africa would be energy independent. Who knows what would happen then? I've said for several years that invading Iraq was not to steal their oil, but to *control* their oil. The dots I'd never connected before though was the connection with controlling the prevailing energy source and empire. We continue to support/elect policies and "leaders" of the old guard, refusing to move into the next era. Eventually, energy will not be controllable... or will it? As you said, that will be the purpose of the upcoming wars. Can the sun be controlled, e.g. from Space? Or infrastructure controlled by war (e.g. Iran and Nuclear).
