> After 70 years of working with fission reactors, we know how to build and operate them at 95%+ efficiency. Fission can provide all the power we will need in our lifetimes.

We still don't know how to build fission power plants cost-effectively. In the last week I saw an article saying that projects can't get financing in the marketplace.

If we still don't after 70 years, it seems doubtful that it will work.

If we can find a cheaper way - even if we could build fission plants cost-effectively now - we should probably do it?
