Of course it could. In fact, that’s precisely what we’ve been hearing since the early 1970s.
The problem is that we’re further from achieving this than we were half a century ago. That’s because, in the interim:
• Battery technology has made great progress in terms of cost and both energy and power density.
• The hydrogen delivery infrastructure has gone essentially nowhere., while the transmission and distribution of electricity in general, and EV charging stations in particular continues to widen.
• The modes of hydrogen generation (electrolysis and methane reformation) remain grossly inefficient.
• Fuel cells that convert hydrogen into electrical energy are expensive and fragile.
Obviously, there are con artists (see above) who prey on those who don’t understand this.
The level of support for Trumpism in this country is running at about 40%. My gardener (nice, honest, hard-working guy btw) has the same chance of becoming president in 2028 as you do.
Most Americans have values that are normally categorized as “liberal,” e.g., human rights, quality education, environmental responsibility, rule of law, etc., and are going to be demanding the end of the insanity here.
Sure! Religious persecution is a long-standing way of life here in America! It’s fundamental to who we are as meanspirited racist morons, antisemites, etc.
The cartoon here offers hope that the working class may be starting to figure out that they’re getting raped.
