Nuclear has so many severe risks associated with it though. It is the better, cleaner more efficient option...if you can avoid catastrophic failure

It can. Modern nuclear technology is far ahead of Soviet-era plants.

Nuclear and hydro should be the only centralized power. Wind is a scam. Solar should only be used on houses

Nuclear reactors cannot be guaranteed to be safe and if they fail they kill land for long points of time. Look at Chernobyl and how that area has been effected. Or Fukushima. If you want to build new state of the art reactors that might be the safest then where do we get funds?

You don't think we've mad any advancements in 35 years?

I understand that molten salt reactors are radically safer than the older technologies. No solution which does not contemplate nuclear as part of the plan is workable.
-
Even the new gen 4 reactors are radically safer. They usually have a negative temperature coefficient, meaning thermal runaway (as happened with Chernobyl) is impossible. As the temperature rises, the nuclear reaction is poisoned and slows down. Same with the peddblebed reactors.

Only one major obstacle with it being cheap.. this world is so corrupted, no one offers anything cheap to make life easier for one the less fortunate. :( and I could use a much cheaper powerbill right now.

Having studied Nuclear Engineering -- Canada's CANDU reactor design (for one) is extremely Fail-Safe; the Chernobyl and Fukushima accidents would not have occurred with that design. Massively underemphasized fact (as is the safety of next-gen reactors in general)
-
My father worked at atomic energy , Candu has proven to be a safe reliable reactor. Ask Canadian's how many know that within 25 km of downtown Toronto is a nuclear reactor Darlington powers station
