IMO, if we were to begin building nuclear power generating plants now as fast as practical (A Manhattan style project), in 25 years we would be the manufacturing power-house of the world again.
Manufacturing companies would be attracted to the cheap energy because oil will be $200-$300.00 a barrel.(Maybe more)
We could presently use the construction jobs the building of the nuclear plants would bring.
Otherwise, we're headed for third-worldism just because of energy costs.
