You think regulators with a profit motive will do a better job?
No, I think safety regulations fall within the purview of government. But Obama's top nuclear regulator is out here sounding alarm bells. Maybe I'm wrong. Who knows more about the current state of government regulation, me or the former US top nuclear regulator?
That's why I wanted you here Monte. Just want to see you tap dance around a top government regulator claiming that government regulation of the nuclear power industry is a disaster.
What now, fancy pants?
No, no, you've got it wrong.
Former government officials no longer have any idea what they are talking about, it's only
current officials that understand things. For instance, to the Brexit thread video I posted, Mervyn King - former BoE head has no clue, only current officials truly understand according to Monte.
Therefore nuclear power is perfectly safe, as long as the current regulator says it is. You should ignore all "former officials" completely.
