Fuel cell cars and molten salt reactors, a synergistic synthesis

This is a type of synergistic synthesis post of two different ideas

1. fuel cell powered cars, and
2. molten salt reactors

I think there's a solution for both that makes it a more attractive political solution than the status quo.

For fuel cell cars, the problem is cost.  Fuel cells cost a lot, the hydrogen cost a lot.  Now, if Aronsson is right about the fuel cells he promotes, then that problem is solved.  For the molten salt reactors, if Sorensen and Hargraves are right, you can make cheaper hydrogen than from fossil fuels.  If they are both right, and I'm right, then they can be synergistic.  The synergies deliver real benefits for real people.

For example:

If thorium is cheaper than coal, this can reduce the cost of hydrogen.  With cheap fuels cells, you can replace the internal combustion engine.  This can revitalize the American automobile industry---if they are built here.

If molten salt reactors reduce waste, and can run on already existing waste, then they can be employed to reduce the waste that already exists without incurring additional risks.  For there's nothing additional being created, rather it is existing radiation being destroyed.  Employ this method of reducing radioactive wastes in order to obtain the energy in order to reduce carbon emissions.  While doing both of these, you can also reduce dependency upon fossil fuels which have to be imported from unfriendly regimes.

This solves several problems on several levels, as you may infer.  A kind of creative synergy.

If the reactors are on the site where the waste is produced, there's no need to transport it away from a secure site.

If the hydrogen is shipped as a green hydrocarbon, there's no problem with new infrastructure.  It already exists for the fossil fuel industry.  Green house gas remediation is a benefit.

No need to finance military spending on protecting long fuel supply lines.  Money can be better spent elsewhere even if it is still military spending.  We can change priorities to better suit our interests.

An additional benefit is that it will create jobs.  Isn't that what everybody's looking for these days?
