    Microsoft is demanding US taxpayer provide loans to bring this plant online. It has been sitting there for 50 years…

    They pay lower rate than the people who pay for the planet.

    What sort of clown capitalist regime is this? And why are taxpayers so receptive to such arrangement.

    If this is such a good deal, why does not microsoft just pay for its own capital expenditure?

    This is just basic capitalism. You keep pointing out to some big picture benefits like a lobby clown in DC asking for money but look US grid capacity will increase and “we” will create jobs 🤡

    I am not against nuclear, or infrastructure. I never made that claim. I am against taxpayer paying for some dude’s pet project…
