Yes. This. Storage is still expensive. Also France is already a world leader in nuclear grid energy. They already have a long history of building and maintaining nuclear plants.


The nuclear grid in France is ageing, as is the expertise needed to construct and maintain. The decision seems to come at a critical time to maintain France's nuclear capability.


I see a lot of engineers voicing their (insightful) opinions here. What about CTOs and engineering directors, HR, and headhunters who need to recruit? Do you find it difficult to recruit for Clojure?

That’s apologism for a despicable practice. Hate the player and hate the game because we’re all getting played in systems where lobbying is legal. This is how politicians end up serving corporations instead of people.


My point is that you can't blame companies for protecting their business. Their boards wouldn't be doing their jobs if they didn't.

The system where money translates into such disproportionate control over the law is broken. Two cultural aspects in America are also factors: 1. Corporations are in many aspects viewed as persons (e.g. they're afforded human rights such as freedom of speech), and 2. half of the voting population doesn't vote.

Only if there is money in the envelope.


Oh, gotta outlaw all forms of political fund-raising too, then; apparently it's ok to give money to your neighbour unless that neighbour is running for office. Am I still allowed to spend my own money on an ad in the newspaper extolling the virtues of my preferred candidate?


> Only if there is money in the envelope

That's already illegal; it's called bribery.

Terse is definitely the right word.
