Nuclear power is also a technology for a stable civilization not one ruled by corrupted politicians that play war with each others

Investing in nuclear power also means allowing engineers to improve the technology. There are plenty of reactor designs (mostly on paper) that can safely shut down without human intervention, which would make them much less of a liability in a warzone.

Let's save downvotes for comments that don't contribute (like zer0's first few).

While I still disagree with his later stuff, it's certainly more productive of a conversation.

I realize downvote != disagree is a fight we can never win, but it's still worth trying.
