Lol we could have had cheap universal energy 60 years ago if it wasn’t for hippies and democrats, who made egregious propaganda to scuttle and regulate nuclear power to death.
I would have added that the USSR was probably looking to also destabilize the US nuclear program in any way that it could considering how far behind they secretly were in nuclear weapons.
Yeah, it's really sad and pathetic that even a place like Texas with enormous amounts of suitable land, locations that would likely welcome the economic boost, etc. and it only has a whopping two Nuclear plants. Comanche Peak is one of the newest in the country having come on in the mid 90s of all things. Area around it is great for camping and hiking and you'd never even know the plant was there. You can't even see it most of the time from a distance.

This angle of environmentalism was definitely funded by oil companies. They are the big funders of anti-nuclear propaganda.
Kind of like the anti-vaping propaganda that keeps getting funded by tobacco companies.

The Simpsons did more damage to nuclear power than the hippies could ever have dreamed of causing.
No, The Simpsons was just showing off anti-Nuclear sentiments that had been going on for 30 years.
