In the US, the answer is simple: the financial ruin from Three Mile Island. The reactor was brand new when it had the meltdown, so was a total loss and required billions to clean up. Who wants that risk?

I guess most people dont remember Three Mile Island - but that's why no one build a Nuclear power plant after that incident. Regulations became stricter and the risks of lawsuits... you can imagen...
