Recently, physicists at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory made a breakthrough. They achieved the first ever net energy gain in a fusion reaction—the first controlled thermonuclear ignition. As the LaRouche movement has always stressed, the breakthrough to fusion energy would mean untold benefit to mankind, forever solving issues of "scarce resources," and would be a driver for a new scientific industrial revolution worldwide.

But this requires a political and mindset shift, first. The entirety of the press conference announcing the experimental results was dedicated to this technology's importance to maintaining the U.S.'s security—i.e. their nuclear weapons.

Thermonuclear energy could end the human species. It could also be the most powerful aid in ending the disease of oligarchism forever. Which one will we choose?

Why Did Moses Take Forty Years?

March 23—Forty years ago today, President Reagan shocked the world, announcing that the United States would make nuclear weapons “impotent and obsolete,” employing advanced scientific principles (lasers, plasma physics, electromagnetic pulses, etc.) to make it an order of magnitude cheaper to kill missiles than to build them. Further, the strategic defense systems would be provided to the Russians—then the communist U.S.S.R. Reagan had adopted the program as designed, laid out, and campaigned for by Lyndon LaRouche.

March 22—Russian President Vladimir Putin and Chinese President Xi Jinping wrapped up two-days of intense summit meetings in Moscow on Wednesday, March 22, and announced a fruitful strengthening of their bilateral relationship on all fronts, along with a call for the international community to recognize that, “to settle the Ukraine crisis, the legitimate security concerns of all countries must be respected,” as their Joint Statement on strategic issues asserted. The two leaders stated that it was necessary to “update and improve the international security architecture,” and they specifically called for urgent consideration of China’s 12-point peace proposal for Ukraine.
