3. Nuclear power is indeed 60 years old
Edited on Sat Feb-25-06 05:09 PM by jpak
...and to build a new nucular plant in the United States of America today, the nucular industry must meet in secret with DIck Cheney and exchange millions in GOP campaign contributions in a quid pro quo for $2 billion in subsidies for each new reactor...

...and consumers must foot the bill for hundreds of billions of dollars in stranded costs for reactor projects canceled in the '70's and '80's...

...and taxpayers must spend tens of billions more to take spent fuel off the hands of reactor operators and dispose of it...

...hardly a stellar track record...

...and on edit: a big jpak yawn for the "antinukers are ignorant" bullshit.
