The FÖS "paper" that gets circle-cited everywhere in anti-nuclear advocacy is complete bollocks. This is obvious from even a cursory reading, but many have also done it in detail.

i only cited it as a side note for the upper bound. the more conservative estimate of the scientific service of the Bundestag still shows that your claim of zero subsidies is made up and unsubstantiated. Discrediting the radical other position and ignoring the center positions does not make your own radical claims true. I can give another source: "Aufstieg und Krise der deutschen Atomwirtschaft 1945-1975" by historian Prof. Dr. Joachim Radkau. However that one you have to get from a library, it describes in detail how the nuclear industry in germany was build and what role and subsidies the government provided.
