Not so.
fusion technology is still not really investable for some time yet.
Indeed. Let states do that long term and very chancy investing. There's a large range of far more sensible ways for the private sector to invest in energy.
This initiative was in response to a call for support by the Cayman Isles
Only 12% of Government Omicron support funds handed to firms
The Government has appealed for more businesses to apply for the grants, stressing that around £850 million worth of funding remains available.www.standard.co.uk
Large space based solar arrays transmitting power to earth using microwaves from Lagrange points L4 or L5, are a more investable proposition than fusion, at the mo:

If we had fusion, we could make any element which stars and star collisions make, and have limitless power to collect the raw materials. Possibilities for humanity would become limitless, we'd survive for more than a few hundred years and this planet could be left behind in a better state, as we populate the rest of the solar system and beyond... to eventually use those other planets and debris to construct a Dyson Sphere around the sun, which will enable us to move en-masse out of the way of species extinguishing cosmic events, and thereby guarantee thousands of billions of years for earth creatures of all kinds. Sadly, it will require more than a multitude of several election terms, as well as the troublesome fusion nut finally getting cracked. Details are available in my manifesto.
Good to hear - slow jogs keep me sane (meditation and all that) but isn't good for my weight - I overfuel, a long run becomes a licence for eating as much as I want to. Caffeine when out is a great appetite suppressant. A skinny latte with an extra shot. Why the spinach?
I know what you mean - I've just now thrown my day's calories down my gullet, whereas if I hadn't gone slow jogging, I'd have consumed all that at about 3pm. Spinach and raw garlic afterwards, because I don't want to die of a sudden heart attack after a jog, like my hero Douglas Adams:

A couple of days ago, I went without food for 38 hours - I didn't feel hungry, I didn't feel cold... I could have gone longer but for a nightmare and an intense adrenaline rush in my gut. So I ate like a pig and reset my schedule to how it was before. I got so much done during those 38 hours, very productive was that "Keto high". There were many coffees with splodges of evaporated milk though lol.
Slow jogging is wonderfully relaxing, when slow enough you forget you're slow jogging and just drift along all peaceful like... I'll stick to about 2 miles. Any longer, it ceases to remain "Low impact" IMHO, but I might just be making excuses.
You mentioned drug companies and the research they do. They use this vast research cost to justify the eye watering prices they charge for some drugs, cancer treatments in particular.
Ah, nightmares and binges. The blight of a marred personal history. These days known as developmental trauma. Waking up in the kitchen. My go too is a good coffee machine (I know it's becoming a refrain - but is such a reassuring ritual, making a cappucinno at 3am while the world ouutside seem to be standing still) and a good kitchen and if one has the space a dog (had a German shepherd back in Africa that was as good as many analysts)
I've no idea what they've achieved, if anything. I do remember a few years ago one of their leading scientists walking out of their cancer research, creating a stir by saying it was a waste of time and would never succeed.
It's called learning to live with it.
If you are unfortunate enough to catch Covid, is staying out of the way for a few days in order to reduce the risk of passing it on a big deal?
I don’t know either. I know how the CEO has benefited. The CEO is taking it home in a wheel barrow. I’m not sure if the cancer kid I refer to above is so lucky.
That would be fusion beyond anything anyone has seriously suggested being possible.
