My fear with switching to nuclear power is that the left will in the future say it's not only bad for the environment, it's dangerous, doncha know. In other words, they'll have a louder voice at banning nuclear than they do with coal or natural gas. Keep in mind that it was not too long ago (Obama years) that the left was pushing to switch to natural gas. They'll change their mind on nuclear just as quickly.

IMHO we lose the argument when we let them switch us to nuclear or anything else. Instead we should try to win the argument that the left has no power to dictate what energy we use.

To: Tell It Right

Nuclear is simply the best way to provide steady base load. It should be used for that reason alone. It also produces very little pollution but that is true of natural gas and modern coal as well.
