You're acting like fossil fuels aren't subsidized as well, and also forgetting about the blackouts in TX caused by frozen nat. gas pipelines. I'm sure you would agree those plants were "entirely useless".

I would agree, remove subsidies and political constraints and let the technologies fight it out. However this is a bit of a fantasy world, and if it were to happen I believe nuclear would see a resurgence and take over as the prime mover.

Hopefully this discussion is pointless in 20 years once fusion technology takes off.
