Totally agree!

Makes one wonder why this is not already the case.

Who among us would not like to have a refrigerator-sized, virtually cost-free, safe and non-polluting power plant that will last for many years buried in the yard for our personal power needs?

Thorium salt reactors require U238 to function. I pursued the details of a startup to create thorium reactors with some of my co-workers who are quite competent nuclear engineers. Frankly, the capital requirements and regulatory burdens made it unattractive to pursue.
