    So nuclear plants of the future won’t be run by companies who cut important corners on safety to maximize shareholder profits while offloading the consequences to the government and public?

      I hear the argument being made that companies shouldn’t be allowed to run a nuclear power plant, or any infrastructure for that matter.

      I mean that’s how things work in China with state owned companies. I don’t see why everybody shouldn’t be doing that.

      No they’ll be run by companies that own everything around them as well, and are naturally incentivized to avoid failures.

      Government subsidizing this crap is why it’s built so cheap.
