nuclear? are you out of your mind? thats the most expensive energie and the only that isnt mined enough for todays needs.

and cutting costs is no big deal, we come from the highest oil prices ever, prices that will not come again so soon with opec broken and iran sanctions lifted(the us doesnt have the power to block a deal and if europe and brics say yes to the deal the us wil follow).

^What has been said above.

Yes, nuclear (as well as wind and solar btw) is not immune to "red queen's race", i.e. diminishing results on every new buck invested, but to a lesser degree if closed fuel cycle would have been a norm. Plus consider new developments in the field like fast breeders that considerably increase resource base, at least among all other options those are closest to being implemented into actual series production.
