Take too long time and cost. I honestly perplexed by the fethism towards Nuclear Power Plants. Have you seen the delay and bloating cost of Olkiluoto, Flamanville and Vogtle?

Nuclear Power Plants are only good too spread the cost of maintaining strategic nuclear jobs and industry and some hope that nuclear space propulsion could be available later.

They'll just blame those delays and cost overruns on greens or liberals.

Better to point out that in China the nuclear targets are many years behind and continually lowered while the renewable targets are met years early and raised.
