- SuoDuanDao 7y agoI feel the exact opposite - if you can't pay your insurance premiums or your investors, I don't want to fund your project through my taxes. I'm aware Nuclear competes with industries that have negative externalities which aren't priced in - to my mind, the proper solution is to tax the negative externalities and not subsidize any particular technology. Subsidizing industries requires hitting a moving target, and government simply doesn't move at a pace where it can reliably add value in that space.
