    What are you using to build those nuke plants? Concrete? Glass? Plastic? Metals?

    As far as I know, a solar plant cannot melt down or leak vast plumes of toxic steam. Nor does solar have radioactive waste.

    Yes, there are necessary tax breaks and subsidies (though I don't think they rank in the billions, like Big Oil). Technologies will improve and economies of scale will kick in to make it much more affordable.
