      Nuclear. America has shut down nuclear reactors and doesn’t exactly have a great history with them. All though now I believe they’re considering modular.

      Then buy cheap solar panels from China to SAVE money. Biden put a massive tariff on Chinese solar panels BTW.

      If the US wants to “catch up” on renewables, don’t take the slow route of building the manufacturing processes from scratch.

      There is no bean counting in Krugman’s strategy.

        I wholly agree. The fact they’re doing this despite tariffs illustrates the cost of petroenergy, to the working class, despite heavy subsidization. They perceive the debt incurred as an investment.
