We're housing all this dangerous stuff on site for the next 30,000 years, which is five times the length of recorded human history. And how you think that is economic, if you had to internalize that, you know, nobody would. There's not a single public utility on earth that will build a nuclear power plant unless it's fully subsidized by the taxpayer. So I would say the day that they can make it economic, I'm all for it. The day they can make it safe and get their own insurance policy, I'm all for it. (56:41–56:52)
