Indeed. Nuclear electric power was hugely mis-handled in the US.

The Navy has had a much better record, largely due to
1) less political intervention
2) single-design reactors designed by engineers (not committees)

The Navy's designs are very well-tested. If I were in charge
of installing a new nuclear power plant in a coastal city,
I'd try to do it by asking the navy to park a ship in the
harbor, and just connect the wires to it. Let them run
the reactor. When it is time to dispose of the reactor core,
it is easy to relocate.
