Given that solar and wind are cheaper, get built to schedule and far less likely to have cost overruns, this meme is bullshit.

Sure, nukes are great. But we need clean energy right the fuck now. Spending money on new nukes is inefficient when it could be spent on solar and wind.

Funny that you call them "Nukes". You really don't like the nuclear power plants if you call them the same as nuclear weapons.

That's the fun part about being in a place where you can hold a discussion. Some people don't agree with you, but they can still see the benefits of the option you are talking about or even agree that they are a great solution for now.

The funny this is that I was a nuke person for a long time, until the facts changed. Nukes were really great fifteen years ago. But solar and wind have surpassed them in terms of cost so my opinion changed. Good shit.
