I'm fine with that as long as people opposing nuclear power keep the radioactive ashes from coal powerplants needed to replace the nuclear baseload in their states. As well as all the other toxic wastes. Not mentioning the side-effects, including global warming, starvation, migrations, and wars caused by that.

Instead so far they seem to push the externalities to others by either using coal and spewing it all into air, or not using coal, but buying balancing power from elsewhere, where they do use nuclear power or coal power :).

I think we can agree both of these alternatives are morally dishonest.
