Weird, all the rig workers I know are 3 weeks on 3 weeks off and make more than enough so they have no need to move office furniture in their down time.
What? Your logic here is totally faulty.
A: Are you arguing for State control of all nuclear facilities, I'd guess by your general attitude that would be a massive no-no ideologically.
B: Using something you literally have no idea how to repair/replace dispose of adequately is the clear example of a disposable culture, wind turbines are made of pretty easily recyclable components.
America no longer makes things because some idiot thought it was a better idea to have a virtual slave working in China than have Hank next door make a decent living.
Water and sewage plants are usually public utilities so the owner is less likely to flee without paying the clean up costs (or sell it to a third party who tragically go bust shortly after leaving no liability for the previous owner), plus the pollution they generate is significantly less toxic.
Lots of films have sections that require subtitles and it's much more convenient to have them bundled with the file, yes, even films that idiots like you watch latest Planet of the Apes, Inglorious Basterds, they are needed for those bits where folks talk funny.
I think that's a pretty blatant misunderstanding of the workings of these things, the longer you leave things the less is known about them and the more shocked the new generation of engineers is at the practices of their elders, "what do you mean you just threw it all in a big hole??"...

Electricity costs are higher than in America, but funnily enough building new infrastructure is quite expensive - I believe it's called investment. If it's choice between paying slightly more and risking the stability of the planet then I'm probably willing to pay a bit more.
You should join a group of other enthusiastic optimists and group together to put your pension funds into it, it'll easily be done in time for you to retire and live like a king.
The biggest hand waving always comes with decommissioning, there are very few examples of a nuclear site being successfully fully cleaned (and even if someone said it was would you buy a house built on the land?) .
