  • Would it work legally? Sure if it got passed as an amendment to the constitution. As currently structured there basically is zero legal argument with that other than another constitutional amendment.

    The chance of that happening with the actual political situation in the USA is essentially zero. To be clear it isn’t actually zero but I. The same way that your chance of walking out the door and dying by direct meteor strike isn’t zero but it isn’t worth planning for over a large number of far more likely things to happen.

    If that amendment both directly allowed shared ownership of property for things like high rise apartments/condos and for companies to function as management but not owners I do really think it could work. I’m sure companies could abuse that management position of course but still a huge improvement over our current situation.





  • Exactly. The problem now is the extreme lag time to build new ones vs solar and wind. However having some truly base load facilities still makes me want more built.

    Vast majority of power should be renewables and storage and I think for this community of Lemmy that is preaching to the choir.

    If you strictly go off the number of deaths and shortened lives from cancer added up to years of a life even Chernobyl is in the 50-300 death range. To be fair I don’t have a source for that at the moment and am going off memory. Hydro has had far worse single events in terms of deaths. There are even car racing incidents around the 80 deaths range. So I just never understand nuclear fear if run under a set of actually enforced regulations.
