> Once a country hungry enough (China) succeeds with nuclear, US politics will catch up. They always do.

At least one journalist believes we are already trailing behind China, and have been for a while now[1]

China licensed almost evey nuclear reactor design out there and sent its finest nuclear scientists to study in the West. They are going to copy every design and build new ones. India already has a working research Thorium reactor based on their modified version of CANDU (the Canadians pulled out when India made its first nuke).
