Nuclear energy is so much safer these days. It's such a pity we aren't using it. Chinas over there building a thorium reactor and we're freezing grannies to death in the name of renewable energy.

In my opinion, China builds crap products.  Does anyone trust China to build an advanced nuclear reactor that could become the next Chernobyl?

Heck, I just bought a new battery for my car last week, cost me $140.  My original battery (made in Japan) lasted me 9 years, the salesman tells me that this new replacement one will only last 3 years. Yeah, gotta love the crap made in China.

Well they aren't gonna go cheap on a nuclear reactor. Remember they built 36 cities before there was anyone to put in them like it was feild of dreams, emaculate cities with great infrastructure too. Have you seen the infrastructure change in the last 20 years in roads and rail on a map? Mostly works emaculately. They go hard when they want to. The reactor is also a salt molten reactor, new design and apparently very safe in the case of the problems with those disasters of the past.
