Neither of those are facts. The reason we're not building nuclear power plants are public opinion. Politicians are subject to public opinion. The death tolls from the three nuclear accidents we have in our history, put up against other energy sources is proof enough alone that the fears and uncertainties on this subject are unsubstantiated.
Please take some time to consider this before honoring us with the opinion you are married to.
The easiest way to identify someone who has no idea what they're talking about regarding nuclear technology is when they start talking about Chernobyl as a reason not to build modern nuclear plants. That's akin to saying "my grandmother's Yugo was dangerous so nobody should drive cars!". And then they complain about the cost, while proposing other "solutions" that are far more expensive and unreliable.
