In the 50+ years of nuclear power plants we have had 1 severe problem – Three Mile Island. And THAT problem was really nothing as the safety control devises worked to perfection, human error didn’t. Compare that to the string of disasters involving oil – not just the beaches.
The solution to this country’s energy problem is dependable and locally produced energy. Nuclear energy. Clean, renewable, easy to manufacture and made in America.
Energy to run an elevated railroad over the nation’s interstate highways utilizing existing technology and government owned land without using a drop of costly imported oil. (The airlines hate this one). With the payoff of reduced aircraft, truck and automobile usage.
Energy to charge the growing number of electric vehicles. The technology is here, we need to use it.
Energy to run manufactories and turn the balance of trade around. We CAN return to a net exporting country and enjoy again all of the associated benefits.
All we need to do is DO IT. Solving most of our problems really IS simple. Run for office on that kind of ticket and I will vote for you or vote for the person that does – OK?
