I would rather spend the money on alternative, green technologies than on nuclear power plants. It takes too long to build them, and there is a very real risk that goes along with it. Plus, it's way expensive to build them. I think developing newer, cleaner technologies will help create a LOT more jobs (even an industry boom, much like the computer boom), can be executed a LOT faster, and the risk is negligible.

Like solar? You know, where the process used to make the panels creates a shitload of horrible chemicals?
