The same way the computer was originally invented by a bunch of government scientists who were trying to figure out, for defense purposes, how to communicate, we’ve got to understand that this is a national security issue, as well.And that’s why we’ve got to make some investments and I’ve called for investments in solar, wind, geothermal.“
