A year after the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear catastrophe began in Japan, the Japanese Parliament published a root cause report, the first such independent investigation in Japan's Post-WWII democratic history. The Japanese Parliament concluded that the root cause was not the earthquake, nor the tsunami, but rather collusion -- collusion between Tokyo Electric Power Company (and the rest of the nuclear power industry), government safety regulators, and elected officials.

There is just such collusion in spades at Point Beach, between NextEra, NRC, and pro-nuclear power government officials at all levels promoting the 80-year operational license. And thus Lake Michigan, and the rest of the Great Lakes, and all who reside on their shorelines, downwind and downstream, are being put in peril.
