3 Mile Island Unit 1 is a 50-year-old, out of date, dangerous, poorly designed, #nuclear power plant. It hasn't generated electricity for 5 years. The only way #Microsoft can afford to restart the reactor and use its electricity is if it is not paying the full costs of the risk of operating it, the cost of decommissioning it, the cost of dealing with the nuclear waste, and the risk of accidents. Who is going to pay for those costs? The public.
