Bold of you to try to make a distinction between this admin and corporations. But of course, they'll hedge. My point is that they do so uphill and slowly, without the research, subsidy/tax incentives and media praise that would typically accelerate progress towards such an obvious next step

    Companies tend to be international. No matter what they might be telling the Trump administration in the United States if they've got solar desires in other parts of the world they're going to pursue them without having to prostrate themselves at the altar of idiocy. Hell, they might get praise in other countries for pursuing solar.

    So they know the economic benefits and they know their benefits would be doubled if they were operating in the US as well.

    Those corporations are happy with the Hormuz situation you think? More likely they let grandpa shit his pants on TV because the current idiocracy is even more corrupt than the previous oligarchy.
