It is incomprehensible to think that governments could be so uncaring about the potential of nuclear energy for eternal disaster.

dude, I'm afraid you kinda miss an adequate sense of perspective on the matter: when BP had the massive oil spillage happening on the US coast, they shelled out 21 billion dollars (!!!) without the blink of an eye.. you know how many countries' debts you could fix with that amount of money?!
Governments bow in front of these giants, allowing them to do what they want. That's the real issue, the true nature of capitalism is one where there's no rules nor control.. capitalism is wild and has no mercy, man..
