It doesn't get any real support from either party, but the Democratic party has historically opposed nuclear energy, including cancelling the breeder program. They've only recently changed position on it in the last two years.

Republicans are more hostile in that cheap gas/other fossil fuels are the primary threat to nuclear energy.

Like I also disagree with the few years thing.

I'm not saying either party is fully pro nuclear, but the clinton/obama wing has been pretty pro nuclear for a while.

450 million isn't much in the grand scheme of things.

As far as subsidies are concerned, nuclear gets fricked.

Yes, it does, and I wonder which lobbies have sucked up all of the subsidy money.

That's interesting chart tho.
