Nuclear waste will not harm the planet - heck, it's from the planet! It'll just harm people...

2012 Notice on the debate last night when NV asked if nuclear waste was going to be dumped on them?
Perry and Romney saw it as a matter of PAYING NV ENOUGH MONEY and only Ron Paul said IT WAS A CONSTITUTIONAL STATES RIGHT ISSUE! To me, it showed how those 3 politicians' minds work.
What do you think? Does MONEY solve everything, or does the CONSTITUTION?

If you want to engage in "what-if" fear mongering about terrorism..it's much easier to construct a dirty bomb, smuggle it into a populated area & detonate it to cause deaths and contamination. Here's a "what if" for you. Since the waste is currently spread out near 100+ reactors in the US, what if a terrorist get's a few spent fuel rods, because short- sighted idiots didn't want to build a centralized underground storage facility near a well secured military base in Yucca.

Fibbs 3. Your fear mongering about terrorism is unrealistic. A terrorist would have to breach plant security, disarm/disable safety protocols or presumably blow up the reactor. He would have to hope to do this before an alerted civilian/military response could stop him(them). Then he'd have to hope enough radiation escaped & in the right direction for you to be "fucked". There are much better ways for a terrorist to strike. They're not going to all that trouble.

Antontellingfibbs. 2 . No need to demolish the plant and quarantine the site. You just need to upgrade/modernize the reactors about every 50 years. Hell you can keep it operating for centuries. Not that it matters much but nuclear waste after 10,000 years of radioactive decay the waste is harmless...not 100,000 as you mentioned.

Antontellingfibbs. 1. Nuclear waste will not harm the "planet" because the waste will be confined to a very small area. To give you some perspective the area for the waste proposed Yucca repository is 2.2 sq. miles vs the entire USA has 3,536,294 square miles. (that's 0.000062%). in other words your fear about harm to the planet is completely irrational. Yes that 2.2 sq mi will be unusable for anything else, but the area is sparsely populated & inhospitable anyway. (ever been to Vegas in July?)

McCain is an idiot!
Nuclear reactors and waste will harm the planet FAR more in the long run than oil and shit we have going now.
When a nuclear powerplant has reached the end of its lifetime (40-55yrs), You cant demolish it before 110-120yrs has past since the shut-down.
And nuclear waste isnt harmless before 100 000years have passed.
And what if a plant or two in the usa becomes terror-targets, and they succeed? Answer: youre fucked.

Drilling is pointless it will barely effect oil prices and wont take effect until nearly 2025. Even then it will have an effect of around 5cents per gallon. By then we should be off oil according to our so called Politicians. All it will do is give oil companies more money for their wallets. Nuclear plants cost 500million to a billion each and are expensive to maintain. To get a permit for one nuclear plant takes 10 around years so McCain is bullshitting when he says that. McCain is a LIE!

Who cares if McCain takes two stances. The point is whether it is the right thing to do.
The answer is clearly yes!
We can store the total amount of nuclear waste in a room the size of a school gymnasium.
We need to go nuclear and drill here...drill now...and pay less.
