The containment buildings? Or the missile shield? If the containment
itself is gone there's a _lot_ of radiation coming out and there have
been no reports of that kind of level being at issue.

We have that buy back in the US too... there are many people around
here who have erected windmill generators, the power company buys
their overage... but wind is not the answer, windmills are much too
expensive to erect and maintain. Solar collection cells are already
somewhat efficient but can use a lot more research for improvement.
What's seriously lacking is storage and transmission. The US strongly
objects to funding this research. If not for inane/corrupt politics
we would have been totally on solar energy forty years ago. The
grubbermint won't fund solar because how will they justify taxing
sunlight. The same for hydrogen powered transpartation... the only
reason that hydrogen cell research isn't being funded is how will the
grubbermint justify taxing H2O. Nuclear is not the answer, it's too
risky. Fossil fuel is too finite. Solar is the only practical
choice.

Who said taxing the rich to pay for improvements in building methods?
Builders build houses to make a profit. Landlords let property to make a
profit.


For demographic reasons the UK NEEDS immigrants, they have a long
history of working hard, making a positive contribution to the country
and the economy (however poor they were on arrival).


The UK has more wealthy people than ever before.

We already have that in the UK (the power company buys back unused
power from the roof panels).

Reading a curve on a graph and making estimates doesn't help when you've
got 5000 bucks to pay for a new roof and solar panels cost 10000.

Ceramic shingles are themselves a rich person solution. You see very
few private residences other than McMansions with ceramic shingle roofs.
Around here the governor's palace doesn't have one.

The most common roof is asphalt composition shingle, which is a lot
cheaper to buy and to install than ceramic.


Not if it's going to take 30 years for them to get down to the price of
roofing that most people can't afford.

And around here if there's no storage it's unlikely that they'll
actually save anybody money--the peak load is at night and the utilities
will have to have enough generating capacity to provide it and they'll
have to pay for that capacity somehow.

Of course someone will enact a law that they have to buy back
electricity, which means that they'll just have to raise the rates to
cover the buyback.

We have your assertion. Do you have a source for this?


That you are asserting that "we" know something that would be very
difficult to ascertain and when challenged refuse to support your
argument in any way whatsoever.

And how does that help somebody who lives in a Snuffy Smith shack in the
Ozarks?
