The US Federal government subsidises Nuclear power to the tune of many Billions per year. There is not a single nuclear power plant that works as a 'commercial' entity. I.E they do not pay commercial rates for insurance
Every country that has a 'research' nuclear reactor spends hundred of million to do 'big' science.
Australia installed a new reactor about 4 years ago and it has been off-line for most of the last 2 years. Costing over circa US$ 75 million to import medical isotopes rather than producing them within Australia. Producing isotopes is the main use of the reactor.

What would that have to do with the nuclear power industry?

Producing isotopes is the main use of the [research] reactor.
What would medical-isotope production have to do with the nuclear power industry?
