If that were true then there would be a reactor somewhere in the world beating wind power on cost, and there isn't. Even Chinese reactors, constructed under a regime that criminalizes hippies and regulates only for the benefit of the party leaders, are reliably late and over budget. Ex: Fangchenggang-3 is a new unit of an existing design on an already-operating site. It began construction 8 years ago, was supposed to be operational two years ago, and hasn't reached criticality yet. It just doesn't work. You can blame your political enemies if you want, but that's not going to make a reactor appear.
