<p>What makes you think that card comapnies/steam scandal wouldn’t happen with digital euro. EU could easily put some constraints on money usage and they wouldn’t need to justify it to anyone…<p>And the hostility probably come from experience with EU that makes decisions solely in interest of politicians and corporations instead of EU citizens in my opinion.</p>

<p>As far as I know, in the 50ies the molten salt reactors where researched exactly with long range airplanes in mind.<p>My point is that for decades we didn’t invest enough into nuclear research in fear of nuclear weapons that all we are doing now is trying to put a band aid on the severed hand.<p>But maybe I just read too much Assimov…</p>

<p>We could have had nuclear airplanes and clean nuclear energy decades ago but here we are burning coal to power our EVs and acting like air traveling is something to be ashamed of…<p>Jokes aside, I don’t see how this should work, people with lowest income wont be able to travel yet everyone else will
Pay the ticket and go on their marry way. People pay 20$ to select the seat, they will pay 20 more in some made up tax to get where they want to go…</p>

<p>In my opinion and experience, which might not mean much, people react well to addiction therapy while undergoing it. Usually cos they are engaged in non usual processes in their life.<p>As soon as they return they their usual life old habits kick in.<p>Only way to have similar lifestyle and drop addiction from it is to dig deep and understand why you have those habits to start with.<p>You have to replace the triggers for usual behaviour and this is extremely hard for learned behaviours.<p>To the extent that those who do it, let’s say by doing sport, actually become addicted to sport if they manage to change their original behaviour.</p>

<p>Sadly I think addiction is a psychological process induced by ones state of life.<p>Most addition therapies work well while a person is engaged in it but as soon as the person comes back to their old life style it comes back.<p>You need to change your life to change the habits otherwise is near impossible unless you have very strong willpower, which most people with addiction don’t.</p>

<p>So it cheaper and faster to build, however I still see no solution for base loads and land usage, which as far as i can tell nuclear is a minute fraction of land usage as opposed to solar and specially wind. Some estimates put this at 1/400 for nuclear vs solar and 1/2000.vs wind where nuclear produces constant power supply as opposed to “renewables”.<p>So there seems to be natural bounds as to how much these can grow and how much land surface they take and thus damage.<p>Plus, we haven’t put as nearly as much time last 30 years coming up with better nuclear devices as we did in renewables.<p>So even if you are right about the current prices I don’t see that as a nuclear problem but populist problem, since people are scared of nuclear waste but seem to be ok with destroying the marine and land habitats.<p>Hey, let’s wait for another decade and see where it takes us.</p>

<p>What do you mean by poor learning effects?<p>I was assuming that by history mean nuclear is not safe so I brought up coal.<p>From the sources I can find it shows nuclear being as expensive as offshore wind.<p>And I can’t find any sources on how expensive is to store energy produced by solar to provide base loads over night…</p>

<p>History if it working reliably and providing best base load power supply over 70years?<p>And if you’re referring Chernobyl and Fukushima try seeing how many people die cos of burning coal… It might put things into perspective</p>

<p>Spending all that money on nuclear is easier, and in long term, better option along side with using wind and solar for daily spikes.</p>

<p>For example, Germany is pushing for solar and wind cos Siemens is producing those and its popular cos people somehow think there are no drawbacks to them… They could have operated their nuclear plants for at least another decade of there was political will for it…</p>

<p>I doubt that somehow, reason we are pushing wind and solar is cos people think it is “green” and “renewable” and are scared of nuclear.<p>Take example of Germany where they shut down the nuclear power plants just cos of popular pressure…</p>
