High prices were neccessary to get the industry started.

The payments were always going to be reduced once the proles could see

You could say exactly the same about the nuclear power industry - the
one that supplies us with cheap, reliable, safe energy.


Only it's not cheap.
The taxpayer is paying/will have to pay forever the cost of storing
nuclear
waste.

Other countries have realised this, but not our numpty government.


There's waste, and then there's waste.

Fly ash from coal-fired stations is radioactive, but isn't treated as
hazardous, whereas if it came from a nuclear site the same level of
activity would require stringent controls.

Nuclear waste can be burnt in power-generating reactors designed for
the task.



Fiction.
Tell me where these reactors are.
