John McCain Will Put His Administration On Track To Construct 45 New Nuclear Power Plants By 2030 With The Ultimate Goal Of Eventually Constructing 100 New Plants. Nuclear power is a proven, zero-emission source of energy, and it is time we recommit to advancing our use of nuclear power. Currently, nuclear power produces 20% of our power, but the U.S. has not started construction on a new nuclear power plant in over 30 years. China, India and Russia have goals of building a combined total of over 100 new plants and we should be able to do the same. It is also critical that the U.S. be able to build the components for these plants and reactors within our country so that we are not dependent on foreign suppliers with long wait times to move forward with our nuclear plans.

i think he'll be dead before 2030 is what i think

No, word on the street is he's offering a $500 million dollar grant to whomever builds a walker he can implant his brain into.  An extra 250 million if they install pod missile launchers and cup-holders.

france uses nuclear power

Exactly why we shouldnt be doing it.

The only thing the French ever got right was the French Foreign Legion.

Personally, I could care less. The tech is alot more proven. However, its still dangerous. I dont really like the idea of 100 new ones, but I do think a few more couldnt hurt. They create ALOT of jobs (mostly for specialists, but still) and it is quite efficient.

I just dont like the risk factor (can you say Chernobyl?), though its certainly lower now than it used to be.

zero emission? since when is nuclear waste "zero emission"?

Since we invaded Iraq.  It's the perfect place to dump radioactive waste, and I don't think anyone lives there.
