I would argue that the probability of viable fusion rises faster with funding than does ending the aging process, if we assume that they're both possible. It sounds like fusion is largely a materials problem, where it seems like more funding would let us try more things more quickly (assuming some current underutilization of people who are capable or nearly capable (with some small amount of education and training)), whereas with human body processes, ethical concerns make it largely a black box for more complex functions like aging. Someone please correct me if I'm way off base here.
