He also fails to mention plans for addressing and cleaning up decades of waste from past uranium mining/milling (over 1,000 abandoned uranium mines on Navajo alone) and past reprocessing activities. McCain also fails to be upfront about the cost to taxpayers from a dramatic increase in nuclear power production, which range from $350 billion to $1 trillion! What a maverick - NOT! </p>sjatkarMon, 20 Oct 2008 18:17:46 -0000
