Kentucky nuke bill about to get a whole lot worse

I thought this business of allowing nuclear plants in Kentucky had been exorcised for the time being, but I didn't count on this added layer of bullshit.

Kentucky lawmakers recently rejected a bill that would have allowed nuke plants by ending a quarter-century-old ban on these dangerous facilities. But with the Republican thought zombies, it's never over, is it?

Now there's a bill in the state legislature that would give utility companies eminent domain "rights" to take your home to build carbon dioxide pipelines. Giving corporations eminent domain powers is just so plainly unconstitutional that I can't believe there's even a bill like this. Welcome to the brave new world of corporate personhood, courtesy of the U.S. Supreme Court.

Republicans added a provision to this bill that would also allow nuclear plants to be built.

Well, that makes at least 2 bad things in this bill. What else does this bill do? Does it require people to wear name tags with a corporate sponsor's logo on them too?

Naturally, this bill is roaring ahead in the legislature.
