I'd add to that the astronomical costs of decommissioning (always passed on to ratepayers) and the fact that nuclear is basically uneconomic. It requires enormous subsidies and always goes over budget. Perhaps most disturbing is the aging fleet of nuclear plants we already have in the country, almost all of them way past their designed lifetimes. This is a recipe for accidents.

I notice that no one brings up that all recent plant construction in the US has been cancelled except one -- which could get killed any day. And no new nuclear plants are planned or proposed for the US.
