> Regulations keep piling on, adding costs and construction time, with no measurable benefit other than political expediency. Isn't that expected for a technology that can poison a pretty large area of your country for hundreds of years if something go wrong? As a member of the public I'd rather have strong regulations instead of lax ones until something bad happens and poisons a large swath of land... The potential damage is just too large, something has to imbue responsibilities and expectations on the ones exploiting the technology. Could you expand on what type of regulation are you complaining about specifically?
