quote of the day
Many people expect high wages for the work, because of radiation fears. In reality, the wages are about the same as those for regular construction work.

Foot in the mouth statement again - Well, he should " Lead By Example " and go out there and shovel some of the clean up too. It's much worse than Chernobyl.
Hello Work is not going to provide health insurance. I am truly sorry for the unknown amount of people cleaning up the radiation and will get infected by the radiation. We will never know who these people and the sacrifice they made for the clean up. If it's anything like the K-19 personnel experienced, I am truly saddened.
