So fuck it, right? Lets just let babies and old people drink it whether they like it or not. All so the nuclear power industry’s profits aren’t hampered by too much regulation.

This isn’t even about my being in opposition to building any more nuclear power plants - I’m all for it. It’s the old ones I’m worried about, and the right wants to leave things just the way they are, all in the name of free-markets and lashing out against some vague threat of “too much government.”

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again - the GOP has become a wholly owned subsidiary of corporate America, and it’s time we stopped pretending they’re an honest player in any debate. If the right had their way, these old nuclear power plants would go right on polluting the shit out of South Jersey’s drinking water. To what end?
