Along the lines of the US National Debt Clock, http://www.brillig.com/debt_clock/ , maybe some web-savvy Polywell supporter could set up a Polywell Data Countdown Clock (seconds remaining until the US Navy allows data release).

If Polywell works, the US Debt could, after a while, become inversely related to total Polywell fusions-per-year. That is assuming the blank-checkers can be dissuaded from using the new US tax revenue for yet more social-control spending.

More likely is that Chinese mass-produced Polywells will hit the market before US politicians wake up, leading to lost tax revenue and a US Debt that passes "critical mass".



It may already be too late.

Polywell is a game changer. The vast majority of the global economy is in energy. If the US makes Polywell then it can pay off all its debt in short order, I believe.

That's one thing I like about Polywell, it's absolutely revolutionary.

I see two potential game changers that are really interesting right now:
Polywell and other energy related tech and MLT engines. Provided that either of them works, they would indeed change everything.

Hell, there's still a lot to be discovered about Polywell, right? So potentially EMC2 could have more patents, I wager. License the tech to China, cash debt to them gets paid off quick as the whole freaking world moves to Polywell.

Could be generalizing way too much here, just a thought.

The tech is by treaty not really patentable. It would be within a country, but not across national lines. We have to give China the tech. I am sure we will drag our feet if we get it first, but still we must pass it on.

Tech transfer is not a necessity. China and other nations probably have Polywell research programs underway at this very moment that we just don't know about, yet. Enough info has gone public for them to have started many years ago.

A bad economic scenario for the US would have the Navy keeping the lid on Polywell results to ensure a military lead, while other countries replicate those results nearly in parallel, and quickly capture the world commercial market for low-cost fusion machines.

While Polywell physics no doubt has numerous subtleties, the machine itself is basically just a big, spherical vacuum tube. Many countries could produce these devices.

I was brievely involved with an attempt by an Austrian company trying to get a foothold in china. They gave up on it. If you want to file a patent there, the process looks like this:
Your patent writing is put on public display. Any chinese can look at it. If a chinese comes and claims that it was not you, but him that invented it, he automatically gets the patent. You loose.
Do you think any of the chinese factories that are producing toys, cars, whatever, are paying patent fees to US companies?
Dreamer!
The best way to do business with China is to not do business with China. Otherwise you will always be the looser, if not in the short term, then in the long term.
