12. I feel safe and I wish they would build one in my back yard!
That way, I would have cheap clean energy, and my property taxes would stay low because most people only know nuclear power through movies and TV shows with massive meltdowns resulting in mutants therefore they won't want to build a house near it.

The waste is a concern, but I would rather deal with that as compared to the air pollution, dangers of mining, and dangers of abandoned mines that are associated with coal. I grew up in coal country, and long after those mines are abandoned they still pollute the ground water, can collapse, and other hazards.

Nuclear for me please!
