Like everyone else in this country who wants to move products to market, now cities, power companies, and waste management corporations have to rely mainly on trucking companies and truckers to get their waste to dumps and storage places. That's not a problem.
Trucking is the iron in the bloodstream of commerce.
The waste coming out of nuclear power plants, uranium conversion and nuclear weapons facilities, irradiators, hospitals and for that matter, the original uranium itself fresh from the mines puts out waves of radiation to everything and everyONE around just like radio waves. Pain, and then anger. Remember, this waste is so toxic that no company in private industry or the U.S. government has produced any kind of container that can be used for the 100,000 or more years that this waste remains toxic to people. And, really, lead containers don't mean a thing to radioactivity. Take your piece of the profits the big boys are making while they rape the earth and pollute your water.
