Going Nuclear

Written by Robert Rhodes on Tuesday, February 26, 2008 in: Politics |

With the power grid problem in Florida that caused a nuclear plant to shutdown.. how long, I wonder, before the nutroots point at the nuclear power plant and start complaining? I can hear it now:

“See?! Nuclear power is bad, man. Like, real bad. All we need is love!”

Of course, it’s clean and efficient power… but logical arguements are usually pointless with environmentalists.

Especially since everything – including the human race – emit carbon dioxide. How a naturally occuring gas formed by humans over the past few thousand years is supposedly just now triggering a warmer Earth (the sky is falling!), I have no idea.

I think we should just place logic and common sense aside, and see what happens.

Oh wait.

We already have.

Bigger government, higher taxes for the rich [because, y'know, all they do is pay salaries and create jobs], and more government programs to help people that don’t want to help themselves…

Now if you’ll excuse me, it’s Tuesday, and I have an odd number ending on my license plate. I need gas for the car.

Then I think I’ll stand in line for a few hours to get a loaf of bread.

But at least health care will be free for everyone.

Yep. If I need any kind of life saving operation, all I need to do is sign up and wait for it… for a few months.

Of course, I may be dead by the time my turn comes up… but that solves two problems:

1. It’s free!

2. Government saves money, since more people will be dead [no operation performed], and that means less bread to have to give away, and – of course – lower health cost to the government, since there will be less and less older people.

Welcome to the new progressive America, comrade.

  • I don’t buy into the Climate Changeā„¢ alarmism, but eliminating our dependence on foreign oil is a good idea for many reasons.

    So…all nuclear power, all electric vehicles! Problem solved…
