Quit trying to kill me, alternative energy

According to Senior People Who Are Trying to Sell Nuclear Power, nuclear power is the safest thing since lying motionless on a pillow wearing protective gear. I kind of wanted to believe this, back when I was considering donating my eggs to science in order to gas up my Toyota, but now that oil prices spazzed out and I will be keeping all of my potential children, I'm back on team Nuclear Power is Scary as Fuck.

Also, ever wonder how nuclear power could save money if it requires construction of cement bastard Taj Mahals all over the place? Apparently it's not, and the solution is: Box o' Nuclear Power Plant!

"Wallace’s vision is for standardized plants, identical right down to “the carpeting and wallpaper,” that could therefore be manufactured and approved for less than reactors of the past, almost all of which were custom-built. Teams of engineers and craft workers would construct the same plant again and again in different locations; just like assembling furniture from kits, practice would make perfect."

So there you have it, practice would make perfect. I plan to steer clear of the "practice" regions of the country- maybe we can localize them all in those Western, empty-ish states? As soon as those workers get the hang of things, it would be just like assembling furniture from kits. And as anyone who has ever shopped at IKEA knows, we would all be fucked.
