Hi jtmab; Re: "Unfunded liabilities always flow down to the consumer. How they get there is a matter for the accountants to determine."

Agreed. My point is that if one is to charge unfunded liabilities to the consumers for one business (nuclear power generation, for example), it should be done for all, and that includes green businesses (like the tax supported wind generators, for example). Otherwise, it's a "heads I win, tails you lose" proposition.
