    Energy should be nationalised. Energy does not need to be run for profit. It should be at a cost.

      Even if it’s nationalized we still want energy generation as low cost as possible so we can use the national budget for other things.

        Sure, but cost isn’t the sole (or main) consideration when you remove profit-motive.

        Also, you only need to break even, so it will always be more affordable than private sector.

        That just goes for everything, though. Thats not specific to any one industry. Clean and abundant energy will come at a cost and that should just be acceptable.
