Why did you think they keep pushing hydrogen fuel cells as the future? They know we're no where close to solving that problem, and if they ever do, the oil industry owns all the relevant patents. This is a simple case of the currently rich caring more about staying rich than if all the infrastructure collapses. A few of them believe the apocalypse is coming, and actually believe they can arrange matters so that they can control the remaining population'access to food and water after it happens, allowing them to become regional dictators. It's a lot of blind stupidity from idiots with inherited wealth. We should seriously consider upping the inheritance taxes to 100% for any amount over $5 million. The founders put that tax in place specifically to try and prevent idiots from inheriting extreme wealth they could never have earned through thier own efforts. Any argument that the US is a meritocracy kind of falls apart as soon as you consider that small, but extremely consequential point.
