The government has provided funding subsidies for nuclear power since it's inception and still does to this day.
So it is a fallacy to claim that government intervention is not a legitimate market force.
The role of government in developing new markets is essential to their success. The shipping canals where publicly funded. The hydroelectric dams were publicly funded. The interstate highways were publicly funded. Schools, libraries, parks, etc, etc are all part of how we operate as a society and the government plays an essential role in keeping it all regulated and moving forward.
Funding for the next generation of energy is a legitimate role for government.
