Look at how much taxpayer money has been used to clean up oil and gas wells.

It's a lot more money than it has been for nuclear incidents. The only major (and I use that term lightly. Largest?) incident in the US was Three Mile Island. Go look at the cost for that vs all the oil and gas issues.

Im hardly arguing replacing aging nuclear with more gas and oil nor adding more gas and oil to fuel even more meatproduce or datacenterspawns duh...
