Uninformed conjecture here, but, should nuclear power be a private industry? Where the incentive is profit?
Could it be a Government Utility, where the incentive can be safety above all else?

Given a large enough number of chances, people will fuck up. The fallout from nuclear fuckups is just too big to risk it.
There are an lot of industry where they are not cost effective without heavy government involvement, and even then the public barely get to reap the rewards.
(Though I supposed if this happened in the USA it would be the death knell of the fossil fuel industry)
