> Meanwhile nuclear power has many externalities which are taxpayer-subsidized.
And how many of those are taxpayer-imposed? Illogical and uninformed anti-nuclear activists prevent new reactors from being built, leaving us with increasingly dangerous old reactors or even more harmful coal plants. Political bullshit prevents breeder/burner reactors from making nuclear waste a manageable problem. Thorium gets no research money because it's useless for weapons.

We know how to make nuclear power safe and cheap.
