It costs between $10 BILLION and $20 BILLION to build 1 Nuclear Power Plant.

That's a million wind mills per power plant, per 10b spent or one is equal to covering over 10% of America's highways in solar power panels strong enough to handle cars and produce enough power for all of America at a fraction of the cost.

One melt down, costs more than any amount of wind mills could drum up.
