Well, the bad news is that nuclear isn't cheap and "trying" isn't producing results.

60% of new electricity capacity added to US grids (over 30 GW) this year will be solar.

China currently has twice the solar capacity of the US and adding capacity at 3-4x our rate.

Nuclear isn't cheap the way a colonoscopy isn't cheap.

But you're right, we need more nuclear power, just like China. Solar is good but if you think nuclear isn't cheap, wait until you hear about solar.
