Not true.  The most recently commissioned Nuke is in AZ, and it's still going as hard as ever, which is a lot because it's the largest plan in addition to being the newest.  That said, it was built decades ago and there hasn't been a license issued since.  Meanwhile, plants are being shut down because of age.

Thanks for the update. Given all the anti-nuke propaganda,as well as all the solar farms and windmill farms,I just assumed they were all closed.

BTW,one solar farm that used panels is now closed and up for sale. Given that it was a golf course near a resort area,I  have to believe the purchase price,as well as the expense of bulldozing all those hills flat,made that a losing proposition from the start.

Then again,I am one of those people that get confused trying to figure out what I am going to do with the dozens of dollars I have left over each month after paying bills.

For all I know it was a planned bankruptcy from the start,and the corporation that lost money selling it to their relatives were able to write enough off of their taxes to make it worthwhile.

Meanwhile,the corporation that bought it might need the tax write-off for the time being,and have plans to build condos on it in the future and triple their money once the tax write-off no longer works.

IIRC, only one or two commercial power generating reactors have been brought on line since Three Mile Island, and that was 1979.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

In 1994 I was a life member of the NRA running for a seat in the Texas legislature against a fellow who had already voted against concealed carry three times.  Who did the NRA endorse?  My opponent of course!  Their area rep being a former state rep and big buddy of his. I've been a member of GOA ever since.

Same sorta thing... I don't remember which thing popped me off (there have been many), but I too walked off from the NRA and support GOA... Since years and years ago.

The one in AZ was the last one.

@Bigun

My strategy was to quit sending them money and continue to receive their magazines and mailings,in an attempt to bankrupt them.

Since this plan was conceived well over 10 years ago,it pretty much sucked. They quit sending me American Rifleman magazines (does ANYBODY still get them?) maybe 5 years ago,and all I get is bulk mail letters asking for contributions. Since I would rather set myself on fire than send them a dime,that ain't happening.
Still a life member. Initially I declined any of the magazines, but a coworker turned me on to "Shooting Illustrated". Called them up requesting it and have ben getting it for about 5-7 years now.
