it wouldn't be fantasy if the regulations for nuclear plants wern't so asinine

I dont know what happened to the title, since I copied and pasted it. But its meant to be "Nuclear Industry May Be Running Out of Steam"

You dont understand, We need the Steam. Its Da SHIT.

bring on the nuclear reactors! im suprised that someone said they dont seem to be catching on when the UK government seems to love them like the fat kid loves cake.

Im kind of glad theyre not being built so readily now, perhaps some of the weirder countries will cease to desire them so much if we find better alternatives.

so many crazy countries allocate massive amounts of money to its research yet cant even seem to feed their own people. the countries who want nuclear reactors want them for status when they arent even well governed enough to see that they have more important problems at hand than what kind of fuel theyre using. Imagine if a civil war hit and someone messed with one? chernobyl mk II!

E.G. - North Korea

"waa! we alienated the west due to our oppresive regieme, media censorship, information blackout, persuit of nuclear weapons and re-writing history to keep our population in the dark, while spending around 25% of our GDP on our military cant feed the population, but its still not our fault we are experiencing mass famine and lack the appropriate trade lines to solve our problems, but we will still allocate massive funds to nuclear power rather than open diplomatic channels with agricultural nations and alter our foreign policy to gain access to cheap crops!" (didnt that sound like a peter griffin quip?)

cry-babies.

its like buying a dodge viper whilst living in a tent off canned beans.

Id imagine theyll bridge the transitional gap between coal/oil/gas plants and renewable energy plants nicely for us nice plump westerners, in our nice cozy homes.

Whats a bit of radiation when its mixed with concrete and buried for hundreds of years? we get as much radiation from a short haul flight as we do from an x-ray, and that doesnt seem to bother us too much!

The only way people would support nuclear power is if nuclear safety is increased and a better solution to radioactive waste is found. Like fuel reprocessing to get much more life out of the nuclear fuel. And transmutation to greatly reduce the half-life of the radioactive waste and even generate power while doing so.
