In a major setback last week, the first serious effort to build small reactors in the United States was abruptly canceled amid soaring costs. While other projects are still moving forward, the industry has consistently struggled to build plants on time and on budget.

    Even that isn’t enough.

    We still need to ruthlessly end North American car dependency…and reduce beef consumption…and stop fast fashion…and stop planned obsolescence and throw away crap

        I consider myself a hybrid. Some things, a market just doesn’t work, like infrastructure and medicine.

        Some things, like entertainment, restaurants, etc, REGULATED markets are best. Regulations are vital though. Costs can’t be externalized. No bailouts. Your business goes under, tough.
