  1. One way to get communities to possibly “sign on” to a nuclear plant being “nearby” would be to make every resident and business located within “XX miles” of the plant, receive no electric bill.

    1. This is kind of like selling people on the idea that a biological weapons laboratory is a good thing to have close by and giving out free health care. Chances are low anything will ever happen, but see how that worked out for Wuhan China.

    1. In all fairness, his homes and golf course locations are probably not suitable for an advanced nuclear energy facility.

    2. Strongly disagree with Molly. Mar-a-Lago would be PERFECT for a nuclear facility. They could add wind and solar too. Demolish the whole thing and Build Back Better

    3. Timothy S. You needed to put the “(sarcasm)” indicator on your post. Some people missed the point.

  2. Hate to say it, but for clean, reliable energy nuclear is the route to go. People are still scared thanks to Chernoble, however that was a plant built by the lowest Soviet builder and was not exactly cutting edge. From the safety stand point, not even Homer Simpson can mess-up a modern plant. They could build on the same grounds as current coal plants then, if Trump allows it, teardown the coal fired facility.

  3. This article is incomplete . There is no mention of dealing with the spent nuclear fuel . Who will be stuck paying for that unavoidable long term cost

    1. Yeah… I;ve noticed nothing about this ever mentions what you do 50 years from now when you have to deal with a toxic pile of junk for the next 100,000 years,

  4. One of the advantages of living in Indianapolis, is that all of the current nuclear plants are several hundred miles downwind, or upwind of Indianapolis.

    I could get behind nuclear in Indiana if we built them NE of Ft Wayne, or East of Clarksville. The prevailing winds generally blow to the E or NE in Indiana.
