I am surprised there is not more outrage at the cost of this project. Was it gross incompetence, theft, or the foibles of government guidance that got us to this point? My guess is that it was all this and more. I believe nuclear power should be our future but it will never work like this.
Well, it all started when CBS (the broadcasting corporation) bought Westinghouse and people who cared more about Nielsen ratings than nuclear steam supply systems and electric generation took over and flew Westinghouse into the ground.
