So for the posters who say the government shouldn't invest in renewables because that's favoritism, how do you justify investing $2B in a single nuke plant?
And by the way I'm 100 % in support of nuclear power.
How close to your house is the nearest nuke plant by the way?
I don't have a problem with the Fed Gov doing research on energy production.
We are in a Global contest and cheap plentiful energy is important for the future of the USA.
I think we know wind and solar are never going to be able to suppy even a fraction of the energy needed for the future.
Add in that both are a blight on the landscape and support our enemies (buying from ChiComs).
