You just disqualified yourself from any argument there. Nuclear power is the cheapest and most efficient form that we have ever found. Yes, the upfront cost may be huge but loans can help with that
- thehappypm 3y agoIf you ignore all the costs, yes, the costs are low.
- olddustytrail 3y agoYou really have no idea of costs. Nuclear is by far the most expensive. Well, ok, gas became equally expensive with the Ukraine war but it had to quadruple in price to get there.
- rayiner 3y agoIf nuclear was more expensive China wouldn’t be building it. It’s stupid western regulations that make nuclear expensive.
- olddustytrail 3y agoChina builds it because they are putting government money towards it, rather than allowing private companies to build infrastructure that can make themselves a profit. Now, I do understand why China works that way, and I also get why Western companies can use this to funnel taxpayer money to their friends, but I don't get why someone like you would support either of these ideas?
