Not surprisingly, with evidence of climate change and atmspheric CO2 becoming increasingly undeniable, along wth its anthropogenic origin in the burning of fossil fuels, support for nuclear power as a substitute form of "clean energy", even ostensibly "green democrats" have jumped on the bandwagon and becom cheerleaders for streamlining regulation and fast tracking the building of more nukes as a solution to our energy woes. Of course Diners well know that even if they throw the regulatory handbook out the window, nukes have no better chance of substituting for Oil than solar or wing power.
Even built at supersonic Chinese speed, enough reactors can't come online fast enough to keep up with the dwindling pool of affordable oil still left underground. Beyon that, the power produced is electric, and to deliver it to all the neighborhoods around the FSoA it needs to get to can't happen without a vast upgrade of the transmission grid, which won't happen due to cost and resource availibility, mainly copper and aluminum. It's use in battery powered EVs to replace the current fleet of ICE powered vehicles has shown its flaws, and individuals and corporation both are eschewing buying them because of mechanical problems , battery replacement costs and low resale value. The cost of the reactors themselves is enormous, and even with fast tracking, where's the money going to come from? How will banks recover the cost of the loans and make money by financing them? The availability of fissionable isotopes and mining dependent of fossil fuel powered heavy equipment leaves the question of whether there will even be sufficient affordable fuel around to run them on. There are still more problems beyond those, but that should be ennough to convince you that Nuke Pukes will NOT be our salvation. It's just more technological Hopium a society obsessed with maintaining the conspicuous consumption of power needs to maintain it's standard of living. Ain't gonna happen, but the technophiles and the futurists who still dream of the Profits to me made by selling this hopium to dimwitted power junkies who would sooner cut off their cocks than give up 150mph, 3000 lb chariots to drive to the grocery store in. We all know a big, fast car is a substitute for a small penis, and the brains behind those tiny cocks is equally small.
Congress is packed though with aging tiny cocks and brains the size of a flea though, so they passed in bipartisan unanimity this ludicrous bill to advance development of nuclear power. A clear demonstration the both Reps and Dems are equally under endowed both upstairs and downstairs with flaccid brains unable to ejalate a decent idea and cocks which can't even ejaculate when injected directly with megadoses of Viagara. Congress is as impotent as its membership, and their members dysfunctional.
So, we'll waste more funny money and more resources building these White Elephants, which in all likelihood never get turned on before the Zero Point is reached and SHTF Day arrives. So it goes.
