So if project fails, taxpayer pays? thank you, daddy

Nice set up ;)

Do you think feds would have provided this loan guarantee if microshit did not lobby?

Clown capitalism at work.

Oh, and you continue to ignore my point as well, so I’ll ask it again… If there are more nuclear plants… thus more production for things used to create and maintain nuclear plants. Will the cost to produce MORE nuclear energy go down?

I trust you bro... i expect further hand outs to be demanded from taxpayer as this project progress.

Something about that nuclear plant in GA, at least that was an earnest try.

again i have zero problem with this refurbishment. my issue is taxpayer subsidy of corpo's capex.

If project so good, why can't they fund it themselves. Why are we socializing this risk for Microshi data centers?

Just feds should just build and operate nuclear plants themselves, they fucking pay for all of it anyway.

But nahh, we pay for them, then they price gouging households with high rates while providing subsidies for industrial use.

One day taxpayers will wake up to this extractive regime, i guess until then got to keep highlighing how silly this arrangement is in a country that can't provide a basic social services to taxpayers lol

Always check the money flow folks, that's where the real story is.
