Who pays for it? The customers that buy the electricity they generate, that's who pays for the maintenance.

Nuclear power is cool technology but unfortunately it's just not economically viable. It is the most expensive way there is to generate electricity.

I'd like to use nuclear power but I'm sorry, I can't afford it. And neither can you. And neither can any manufacturer that would no longer be competitive on price if they were forced to buy nuclear powered electricity.

Free markets always drive innovation. Taking away customers ability to choose were they want to buy from is fascism. You're not a supporter of facism are you?

Given the choice, no one wants to pay the exorbitant price of nuclear power. If nuclear power can't compete on price, do you hold a gun to customers heads and force them to buy it?

Over the next 50 years, it’s a whole lot more expensive to use wind turbines to produce the same amount of energy that any nuclear energy plant does. I find it really sus that anyone can fight nuclear power at all. You’d have to be severely retarded to fight for wind/solar energy in this energy race. Let’s build nuclear energy together instead?

No, it's not more expensive to use wind. If it were, private enterprises would be investing in nuclear.

You can believe any bullshit you want. The people with the money, don't believe your bullshit. Simple as that.
