France is your case that nuclear helps the poor? France with its aging nuclear fleet that is too expensive to replace? France with its nuclear power corporations that are, in many important ways, stronger than any democratic institution in the country?


Nuclear power's latest attempt to drum up a new bandwagon has been a grand failure for precisely one reason, the exorbitant cost of building nuclear plants; and yet here you are claiming it is a solution for the world's poor?
