Give me cheap and plentiful energy and I'll give you higher wages and economic productivity. That's the recipe for economic recovery.

I would add changing to a radically simplified and business friendly tax structure and relief from the current nanny state regulatory morass (out of control EPA for one example) to the above, and our economy would truly take off again.

We need a wholesale cleaning out of the current political and bureaucratic cesspool in order for that to happen. I'm not holding my breath for meaningful change along these lines, but who knows? Maybe the public will wake up one of these days..

Nukes of any kind will just not get off the pad.

Costs just continue to explode.

You guys seem to continue to love "centralized, failed generation".

It's all over Hawk.

My power source is much, much more reliable and clean..
