Imagine a government so cartoonishly evil and/or stupid that it would develop nuclear technology, then use it to extract fossil fuels more profitably. No need, the USA tried.

Ok, but in their defense the other idea is putting small nuclear reactors in everyone’s car. Fallout didn’t pluck that idea from the aether.

  At least that would’ve made the traffic interesting. Fender bender directly followed by nuclear contamination of an entire city block.

  Wouldn’t be surprised to see someone make a car with a small nuclear reactor in near future just to have it made and shown
