I was surprised by this article and how loose the regulations are and how laid back the regulators attitudes towards public safety really are. I wasn't aware of how common meltdowns are or could be.
Although supplying power to our cities is important, I think public safety should over rule short term profits. Plant owners over look what seem to be minor problems and turn into near catastrophes and its completely wrong to ignore even the smallest problems if the safety of our public is involved.
If nuclear power is meant to be, I think we should perfect process of making that energy without catastrophic consequences before starting to construct new plants all over our country. I am 100% for finding new ways to produce energy for our country more efficiently but it needs to be done responsibly, and taking away from the article the nuclear safety regulators are not being responsible.
