That's completely beside the point. You said, renewables were only cheaper because they're subsidized. I proved you wrong and showed that nuclear is subsidized. That has nothing to do with companies being for-profit.

Even if the government subsidizes it, the company selling it is already for profit selling it at a higher price point. The government can only subsidize so much.
