So here's the million dollar question, who exactly is holding nuclear power down & why? I could see the O&G people not losing their business but wouldn't there still be a market for the foreseeable future? The Greenies can't all be that stupid that they can't see the benefits of small reactors next to the intended power recipients vice horribly inefficient wind & solar facilities? Did the Cuban Missile Crisis so damage the American psyche that nuclear will never be considered the preferable option?
It would seem that successive Western governments, with some notable exceptions like France, just never wanted to fully embrace the power abundance of nuclear power.
Have you seen the videos of the late nuclear chemist Galen Winsor? He was promoting nuclear power to townhalls back in the 80's. Well worth the time to watch. The links are in an article of mine:
