Did you read the book Jed?
My nephew thinks that laser fusion projects such as the ITER, will work.
OTOH, he's savvy enough not to spend his own money on this research.
He'd happily spend your (tax) money on it however. As for the wrecked
careers, the hot fusion physicists have used this dream as a cash cow
for over a half century. AFAIK, there's no end in site.
When the British announced their latest laser fusion experiment, I
questioned Ed Storms about it. Apparently their approach is different
from the magnetic confinement with a lithium blanket approach. I haven't
read any evaluations of it's feasibility.
The book's attacks on LENR really irk me. It's clear that some results,
The Patterson Cell, and the heat after death, clearly show surplus
energy. Then there's the matter of the anomalous neculides.
