"I already explained why this is the case."
No, you didn't, but you have now. So, it's because you expect electrical warming to become cheaper as other means. Apparantly you don't mind having to spend 4 times as much energy, just to make a bit of (presumed) profit.
"We need heating, and cooling here or people die."
Weren't you the one who said people shouldn't live in 'dangerous' places like New Orleans, after the events with Katrina? Maybe you should take your own advice, if you can't stand the 'heat'.
"Since beginning operations in 1976, Franceâs La Hague plant has safely processed over 23,000 tones of used fuel"
Also from that source:
"In October 1976, fear of nuclear weapons proliferation (especially after India demonstrated nuclear weapons capabilities using reprocessing technology) led President Gerald Ford to issue a Presidential directive to indefinitely suspend the commercial reprocessing and recycling of plutonium in the U.S. This was confirmed by President Jimmy Carter in 1977. After that, only countries that already had large investments in reprocessing infrastructure continued to reprocess spent nuclear fuel. President Reagan lifted the ban in 1981, but did not provide the substantial subsidy that would have been necessary to start up commercial reprocessing."
Now, how exactly is this reactortype helping to reduce the amount of nulear waste in the USA?
"Tell me about your solar panel and all green things you are doing for the rest of us."
I don't need a solar panel, because my energy bill is already only 10% of yours (through isolation and conservation).
"But, could it be done with green energy sources? Of course."
Right. To reduce the problems of nuclear energy, you want to use 'green' energy sources. I thought nuclear power was already 'green' in your opinion.
"How about the coal and oil needed to make and ship solar panels"
Yeah, everyone knows that nuclear reactors and enrichment centrifuges grow on trees.
"There is simply no viable way to collect the vast majority of that energy"
Why would you need that much? A total space as small as 2% of the uninhabited areas in the Sahara would be enough to fulfill all current energy demand. And that's without any improvement to existing techniques.
