Thread Name: BS: Japan Nuclear plant disaster, 2011
Subject: RE: BS: Nuclear plant disaster looming
Gnu points to a problem that has faced us for over 50 years. Why would vested interests in nuclear power worry about other ways to generate electricity when the have the solution wired--as far as the vested interests are concerned.
1) Some things seem clear. If I discovered a cure for cancer, it would put millions out of work.
2) If I discovered a cheap source to use instead of gas, it would put millions out of work.
Etc.
Our paradigm is all wrong.
