Which is funny, because we actually built a pretty much complete nuclear power plant, Zwentendorf. It‘s now a unique museum.
A vote of just 50.47 % ruined our radiant future...
Also we do have one research reactor left right in the city. I was blessed enough to visit it once.

- dragonwriter 4y ago> There really should be a rule that important decisions can’t pass with a tiny majority There are at least two major problems with such a rule: (1) On an important question, “yes” and “no” are both important decisions. (2) Who decides what is “important”? You can make a rule that is closer to “you can’t make specific kinds of deviations from the status quo without a supermajority vote”, but that’s…very different from “important decisions”.

- HyperSane 4y agoThe US also built at least one nuclear reactor and never used it.
