Getting the public's trust is tough, when you have Hollywood and the media against you. They have been extremely dishonest on safety and waste. Honestly, I don't understand why the left would be against Nuclear Power.

I know we have had more deaths from Wind Turbines than Commercial Nuclear Power Plants, in the US, since there haven't been any deaths in commercial nuclear power plants. Ever.
