22. In this case, the hairdresser would be right
and the so-called "expert" wrong.

US uranium production peaked in 1980 at 43 million pounds per year - US mine output has declined to ~2 million pounds per year today.

US uranium stocks are in decline and currently maintained by imported yellow cake - not by domestic production.

US reactors consume ~62 million pounds of uranium each year - significantly higher than the 43 million pounds produced in the peak year of 1980.

The US can't supply fuel to its present stable of reactors - it's an unsustainable industry.

And every hairdresser knows that....
