> Not to mention nuclear is also the safest technology out there so far (read up stats on the deaths per each technology, per megawatt)

Let's remove all laws where the public bear the cost of accidents then? Should be fine since it's the safest!

That is for the U.S., but equivalent laws exist in all countries with nuclear power plants.

Feel free to do so! I'm not interested in law in US, nor is law my point in general.

Safety of nuclear is confirmed by death stats and bills like the one you mentioned don't prove otherwise. In fact I'd say they encourage lesser safety measures if anything...
