"But the new crooks-in-charge will not be able to profit from the use of nat gas"

And "crooks-in-charge" are also unlikely to profit from the use of Nuclear Power Plants because, in principle, they are fairly simple .... You lower energy producing fuel rods into "receptacles", they interact via nuclear "emission" which in turn produces heat, and this heat boils water producing Steam, and that steam turns the blades in a turbine, thereby generating electricity.

And once you've built and supplied a Nuclear powered plant it can work for many, many years.

There's a Nuclear Reactor about 50 kms from where I live producing about 1860 MW and it was built around 1984. So it's been running for over 35 years without much having to be done to it except to provide a new batch of "rods" at certain intervals. And the spent rods get placed in a very deep underground and isolated storage facility.

And then there's the source of the Nuclear fuel. So for "crooks-in-charge" to profit from that they have to have a major control of the supply of Uranium. And that's not easy to do as Uranium is supplied from ABOUT 16 COUNTRIES ......





BUT, as I previously mentioned, when it comes to Wind, Solar, Wave energy, etc, there's FAR MORE SCOPE FOR "crooks-in-charge" to make healthy, ongoing profits from the numerous plant items and the range of accompanying by-products, spare parts, servicing requirements, etc, that are associated with those energy systems .....
