[ RadSafe ] Overcoming America's nuclear power phobia

[John Jacobus]

Please note:

"Crushed by the burden of debt  incurred in building a
plant it could not use,  Lilco settled for  a deal
under  which, through a huge tax deduction,  the
federal taxpayers will  ante up for part of its
losses, and its customers will take care of the rest."

Economic bailout?  Maybe with some Federal tax relief,
LILCO would have gotten their license.
