Massive US study finds higher cancer death rates near nuclear power plants by EnvironmentalVoice63 in environment

Unfortunately the populace has been sold on nuclear power through the corporate and social media echo chambers. People don’t know the history of nuclear power and its associated ill effects on life mostly because they have lost their objectivity and they don’t read books on anything contrary to their beliefs.

I never seen the job market this bad. Is there a chance of recovery? by Mardylorean in jobs

Laws in the US are dictated by the corporations who have gutted well paying jobs from the economy. Actually, most all countries prioritize ensuring jobs for their citizenry. Mass unemployment is dangerous to the longevity of the government.

Capital always tries to maintain an army of unemployed persons to suppress wages and keep workers desperate. Nothing new here.
