I see they do not want foreign and private involvement in their oil industry. When push comes to shove out of desperation they will turn to outside investment.

OH NOES NUCLEAR POWER OMG OMG EVIL EVIL
Instead of paying tons of money for gas, you get to pay tons of money for electricity.
That's why we don't have electric cars. |

Now there an interesting scenario. When everybody starts driving electric cars, they will have to be charged up. That will place an even higher strain on an already highly strained electrical power grid. Will this then lead to much higher prices and the increasing occurrences of brown outs and shortages?

Not to mention Uranium prices will rise with increased demand.
