Well, here we go again...
What in the heck is President Obama doing? Now he is supporting nuclear energy and pledging to waste billions of dollars on that nonsense, thinking it is a clean, quality energy source for America's future.
Nuclear energy is not clean, because it leaves waste that has to be managed for thousands of years. It is not safe. The first major Chernobyl-like disaster that occurs in America is going to be costly beyond belief, poison people with illness, and contaminate whatever region it is in for probably a century. And that's supposed to be quality?
I don't understand why Obama is bound and determined to chase away his progressive base--this time, environmentalists. My patience is wearing out.
The energy resources to develop should include wind energy, wave power, solar energy, and other truly good and safe sources. If every housetop in America had a portable wind power generator (just like homes have cable dishes) and solar panels, citizens would not only be able to cut their costs for utilities but also, in mass, reduce the need for other energy sources and help save the planet. If the Obama administration would fund that kind of portable equipment manufacturing, made in America PLEASE, and provide tax breaks, discounts or even reward in the way of food or product certificates for citizens in order to acquire the equipment, then there also might be some more jobs created for the American workers.
