      The nuclear lobby is alive and well on social media. They say it’s carbon neutral, when it isn’t whatsoever. They dismiss claims of leaking nuclear waste barrels. They dismiss claims of irradiated waterways and towns. They dismiss claims of danger from meltdown, because obviously no nuclear meltdowns have ever occurred.

      More economic means more profit. Profit, by definition is excess.

      You’re advocating for paying more than what something costs to produce so someone richer than you can be even richer.

      Smart man.

        Perhaps it’s not so advantageous for the consumer, but for the people creating and supplying the power, it’s a home run.

      Can you explain then why Germany that’s so much into renewables is building so many coal mines?
