Again, I never said it was irrational to regulate. And its equally wrong that it was 'self-regulated' before that.
But the amount of regulation interceded was in no relation to the accident that actually happened. But rather the accident gave the political momentum to the anti-nuclear people to essentially make further development of nuclear impossible.
You are just engaging in binary logic, while I try to point out real problems with the current system that need to be addressed on a lot of levels, from development, to building, to licensing and so on
The reality is that you have no interest in even engaging in the actual problems with the current system in order to present some binary choice that you can force on people. Its simply the same old fear tactics, don't engage with the actual subject matter, demonize based on principle.
> Furthermore, the Trump administration is already deregulating the nuclear industry, so you're getting your wish.
No they are not actually. And some general 'deregulation' is not my goal.
