> Fixing the politics is still necessary, and rather urgent.

I agree. It's just wishful thinking to say that oh if we just lower the price of solar then it'll be okay. There are innumerable issues which are blocked by politics and we will never solve them all without fixing politics.

> Otherwise we are in for a great societal upheaval that might make low price of solar irrelevant.

These days I think a great societal upheaval may be the only way to fix politics.
