None of us in our lifetime will see another nuke plant built in the US.
You are right. All those that proclaim it is all no big deal wouldn’t buy a home anywhere near a nuclear reactor.
This may not be a reason to panic, but it sure is a turnoff to a normal person.
or a refinery; we haven't seen a new one built in some thirty years. A couple of years ago the Democrats stopped the plans for a military refinery that was to be built for military fuels only.
None of us in our lifetime will see another nuke plant built in the US.
US Navy would be minus one of its basic means of propulsion, should nuke plants no longer be built.
I can certainly believe the statement, which may not be a bad thing, if reality becomes the bottom line. Coal fired is safe, reliable, cheap, (by comparison), quickly built, and needed, to use our own assets. Except for the US Navy. I can’t see them going back to coal tenders, but stranger things have happened.
