Of course. Nobody in power wants fusion, as most of the political class have vested interests in petrochemicals. We're all going to die in the next few decades. Such is life.
Oh I thought it was a reference to the fact that the Sun's (about 8 light-minutes away) been doing fusion at stable rate due to it's enormous gravity this whole time. Maybe I misunderstand what is meant by gravitic containment?
You seemed confused when you were talking about the time to get to LEO. I was just clarifying what I thought the "eight minutes away" comment referred to.
