Why Not Use the Atom to Stimulate the Economy?



In crafting the trillion dollar "stimulus" package, Marxists in Congress and the White House dedicated massive amounts of money to fund repairs to the nation's aging infrastructure, which in turn will boost the economy with needed jobs.

Unfortunately, the Obama administration and Congress missed an excellent opportunity to stimulate the economy while simultaneously addressing America's energy crisis. Both issues should have been pursued by an aggressive federal program to embrace nuclear power, the cleanest, safest, and most economical source of energy in the world. Rather than wasting hundreds of billions of dollars to fund unneeded liberal social programs, stimulus funds should be used to activate at least 30 nuclear power stations in America over the next fifteen years. A robust nuclear program would reduce America's dependence on foreign oil, boost the economy, AND move the nation in a green-ward direction. Doubt the viability of nuclear power? Ask France and Japan! Rather than cowering in ignorance and fear during a lights-out "earth hour," let's demand "lights on" for America's greatest unused resource: Nuclear power!
