Fusion energy becoming cheap in 5-10 years? You’re the most optimistic person on HN if you think that’s possible! It takes decades to build a fission plant and that’s with tech that already exists! I’d say the real path to viability is cheaper renewables and food and water becoming far more expensive. The western part of the US uses an unsustainable amount of water for agriculture. That situation is going to implode in the near future. So this scenario might happen.
