Regardless, I'd love to know how they're going to prevent the shareholders in the companies from selling them off cheap after they've taken the profits but before they're forced to bear the cost of decomissioning.
The way to avoid the second problem you mention, at least the way we do it in Sweden, is to tax nuclear electricity when it is produced and put the money in a segregated decomissioning fund. Peak oil is not an energy crisis. It is a liquid fuel crisis.
Taxes are anti-business.
