Then the movie "/China Syndrome/" came out.  Huge piece of pure propaganda.  But it changed a lot of people opinions. Unfortunately too many people get their view of the world through movies/TV.

Billions of tax payer dollars to build five power plants.  Only one ever

going to get electrons for less than it cost to suck them out of the rivers

A person would think somebody would have done a bit of research and found

public and private and in-between need to go to prison after losing

UTILITIESScana accountant testifies she was made to lie about reactor
costsPublished:
Tuesday, August 7, 2018

A former accountant for Scana Corp. has testified that top executives at
the utility pressured her to lie to regulators about how much it would
cost
to complete a S.C. nuclear project that was later abandoned.

Carlette Walker, who was responsible for spending oversight at the V.C.
Summer project, had to give sworn statements to state regulators on the
increased rates that subsidiary SCE&G was charging customers to fund the
two reactors.

Walker said she quit in June 2016 "because I wasn't going to lie," and
named a former chief executive, a former operations chief and former
chief
financial officer when asked during the deposition who forced her to
lie.
A voicemail left by Walker in early 2016 was also played for the circuit
court judge, who is overseeing the civil suit that seeks $2 billion in
compensation for utility customers — the amount they've paid to date for
the project.

In the voicemail, Walker is heard accusing Scana executives of "breaking
every friggin' law that you can break," and propping up the project to
hit
profit targets and collect millions in bonuses (Tom Barton, Columbia
