That is why whatever location they will propose for the nuclear plant, the local and national resistance will be huge.
Seriously, what can the public resistance do to stop the government from building one ?
First they take an area and heavily secure it so no one can even get close to the facility.
They build it by putting thousands of people to work nullifying half the resistance with good paying jobs.
Then once it's up and running it's to late to shut it down.
That's how they do it in America.
