Bad day in Oklahoma
You are coming at it from the wrong direction, Jay. Nuclear fission
requires some rather scarce chemistry (U235 doesn't come out of the faucet
when you turn it on) but FUSION does come out of the faucet. While
"ultimate" solutions are yet to be found (what happens some several millenia
down the road when all our water is turned to helium?), if we had spent one
tenth of one percent of what we spent on foreign oil over the last fifty
years, we could tell the middle east to EAT its oil, we don't need it.

Electricity created with nuclear fission can be used to create all sorts
of alternative fuels
