Does anyone remember WPPS, the Washington Public Power System?They went broke back in the 70's due to over regulation and the anti nuc lobby. Also look and the Nuclear Depository. Think about that very good advice "When you find yourself in a hole, the first thing is to stop digging". With the problems of disposal and current mind set about nuclear power I don't see it ever being a viable power source in the US. The last two days I spent driving across North Dakota on I-94 and I think we must have seen at least 5 wind turbines, all privately owned by farmers. This as I was pulling a small travel trailer and getting 8 mpg with my deisel pickup while heading into a 35 mph headwind.
The answer is all around us, wind, solar, what else do we need?
