The OP shows this not to be the case. US costs are in-line with French costs, while the US has much greater regulation than France.

- jfoutz 14y agoIs it possible france's costs are higher because of all the other stuff they provide, like free health care and six weeks of vacation? The op blew off 30 years of thinking on the expense of nuclear power with a reference to an unlinked paper. Sure. It's possible nukes are just kind of expensive "because", but there's nothing compelling in that article to change my thinking that it's regulatory cost.
