It is sad to see that nuclear advocacy has simply become telling people they or their ideas are stupid because they point out the political reality of the world.

It doesn't matter that it takes far less than 49 years to actually construct the physical manifestation of a nuclear power plant.

What matters is why it took so long to build.

You can't solve those problems by insulting people.

This is circular. You are saying that we should have policy B, partly because A is too expensive. Why is A too expensive? Because of policiy B!
