\small``Economics is the science which studies human behavior as a relationship between ends and scarce means which have alternative uses.''
\small - Lord Robbins 1932

	\onslide<2>Nuclear energy is one piece of a broader energy economy, where scarce resources are allocated to there most productive use.

	Consumers do not care where there energy comes from. They will purchase the lowest cost energy source.

To expand nuclear energy use in a local market look for a constrained market where nuclear can lower costs regionally.
