    Hay Kaz, unrelated FYI

    Nuclear energy probably wouldn’t be economically possible w/o the Price Anderson Act that assured potential investors in nuclear plants that costs incurred from disasters would be born by taxpayers.

    In a free market, the liability insurance of nuclear energy would price it out of business.

      Actually, nuclear power almost certainly would be cheaper — and safer — if not for government meddling.

      What we have now are power plants designed by government bureaucrats, through regulation, and stagnant in technology. In fact, all of our plants are thirty-plus years old, again because of the government.

      It is actually possible to design a plant that will, if systems fail, be unable to sustain a reaction, shutting itself down involuntarily…but in the US, it’s illegal to build one of these.
