> Why should public opinion override the need for energy security
Ah, you've made the mistake of believing politics is rational. There's no reason for this other than "politicians would be punished otherwise". Is the public wrong? Yes. What are you going to do about it? You can go round and round about the way things should be. That doesn't make them so.
> Leave it to the experts and the technocrats, not the average Joe and Jane who operate with asymmetric information.
This is going to be an extremely tough sell. Godspeed.
