The energy crisis in California at the turn threatened to destabilize the economy. We cant afford not to have massive funds for development
We don't need massive government funds, if it's cost effective, it's cost effective. Sort of like recycled materials—they are only useful when they are competitive with "virgin" stuff.

What we need are more nuclear plants.

You like to ask for massive taxpayer subsidy. Just curious, how many hundred grand a year do you pay in income taxes?
