48. I would not waste my time arguing with Republicans
Did you not notice my saying that we need a nationalized nuclear energy plan?
That the IFR was a government project?

Once again, private industry is an abject failure at the use of nuclear power, and all of the studies that talk about its cost do so in terms of the private investor.

The only country with over 70% of its power consumption supplied by nuclear is France, and it was done by a nationally owned company.

It is my position that opposition to nuclear power is suicidal for the Democrats, because the damned Republicans are right about the inadequacies of wind, biofuels, solar, and even frugality http://skepticva.org/frugality.html and they'll either do nothing, or give monstrous subsidies to the lousy energy firms to let them do nuclear at four to ten times what it should cost.
