I love your article, but it could have been even better if you had mentioned that Solar is the only source that adds Joules to the Joules already on Earth, so the Joules from solar that we have put to use in all of history so far have not been reflected by any issue of money, and this breaks the ideals of Austrian Economics, which says all money should be reflected by product and vice versa, otherwise the money is negatively affected in markets, since the product is the thing of value, not the money, and since solar energy is unquely pushed to us, involving no labour per Joules received, effectively it is a donation from the sun, so the money issued has to be issued to all people to accurately and honestly reflect the value of the Joules received.

I call this "Kardashev Money", and this is actually the biggest sales pitch of solar. Trouble is, it ends capitalism as we knew it, and a lot of folk don't like the sound of that.

But its inevitable.

The banks and money issuers can issue money right now for all communities to become 100 percent solar powered with local hydrogen backup, supplying all transport with clean fuel, no centralised grid required, but they won't for now, because they think they can maintain the energy monopoly forever, but it isn't possible, money will absolutely collapse, if they don't use it to represent actual donated energy put to use, whilst the solar farms are multiplying and scaling up all of the time, as they have to, because we have run out of the usable energy capital already on Earth.

Hey-ho, watch that space, I would say.
