Germany s Greens Have Ukrainian Blood on Their Hands | The Free Press

Every country, every culture, has things it s irrationally afraid of. The French are irrationally afraid of working till they re 64 instead of retiring at 62 and they have riots to prove it. In the U.S., people are irrationally afraid of vaping, failing to understand that e-cigarettes can save lives, not shorten them. And in Germany the subject of my first column for TFP the citizenry are irrationally afraid of nuclear power.

In fact, Germany is so afraid of nuclear power that, as of April 15, it no longer has any working nuclear reactors, even though nuclear power once provided more than 25 percent of the country s energy needs, and even though it is one of the safest, cleanest forms of energy in existence.

Japan seems to have more reason than Germany to be afraid of nuclear power. Germany has reason to be afraid of inflation though.
