The push for nuclear is about Australia having the uranium and US having the know-how.
All the other energy sources are being picked to pieces because the organ grinders want to use that up at the usual profit rate, before other forms of energy are freed of the prior criticisms.
I'll bet Haliburton is getting fine tuned to take it on and protect it.
