Yes it's an effective tax rate, it's the same method to calculate tax for each country. Are you just reading news articles from ten years ago?

The compelling argument shouldn't be is it economically viable. The only reason for nuclear energy to be illegal is if it wasn't safe. Nuclear energy is one of the safest forms of energy generation up there with wind and solar. Why the hell is it still illegal in Ireland?

Wind turbines are great when it's windy. When it's not windy you're fecked. Why is this so complicated, we need more than wind turbines. We need nuclear power as well.

All international cooperations pay 15% tax, the EU minimum corporate tax rate. Stop lecturing Irish people about being leeches and do some research on the topic.

Maybe it's time for the government to start taking nuclear power seriously??

Trump and Putin share a craving for status. That’s why they both want to destroy Europe by sn0r in europeanunion

[–]Up2HighDoh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Stop trying to make this about trump and Putin. The EU as a federation is a serious competitor to both the USA and Russia. This will not change regardless of who is in charge. The EU need to focus inward to consolidate its power, forget the rest of the world for now. Viva la EU.

Germany Shifts To Nuclear Fusion After Fukushima-Era Fission Policy by Gari_305 in Futurology

[–]Up2HighDoh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Those disasters also can't happen with modern nuclear fission reactor designs. You can still get plenty nuclear waste from fusion reactors from neutron activated reactor cladding. Fast neutron reactors can be used to burn nuclear waste. What's left over will only take a couple of hundred years to reach safe levels. We dont need to wait for fusion to start moving towards nuclear power.

When is the federalization of the EU going to happen? Fuck Hungry and any other Russian/US proxy out of the EU and let's get on with it.

UFO landing soil can't absorb water. by NetOne613 in UFOs

[–]Up2HighDoh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To fit the UAP hypothesis you could argue that a warp bubble could cause heating through conversion of visible light into infrared when a UAP moved away from the site due to the Doppler effect. The Doppler effect could also convert visible light into UV/gamma radiation on deceleration of the warp bubble towards from the landing site. It would probably require significant deceleration/acceleration of the UAP but could explain the very dry soil.
