Reflection

Though, spring term at Portland State University has concluded, the terms of the workers’ and my interest in the controversy has only just begun. I have learned so much through the creation of this blog that I have decided to continue to follow the issue the best I can, time and personal situation allowing.

I can not guarantee daily or weekly posts, however I do intend to research online and in other mediums the few news releases depicting the progress of claims filed by nuclear workers. This “black box” created by the government presenting nuclear plants as not being a lead cause of cancer in nuclear workers is ludicrous and a well-designed out PR strategy.

If nuclear plants have nothing to do with cancer, then how is it that so many nuclear workers developed multiple forms of cancers, very unique from the population which they reside among? Perhaps, we may never know, as the allies that the government has far outnumber the allies of the workers’. The hope is that treatment, compensation, and the "truth" is provided to these workers and the public, lets not forget they were working for the US government, as well.
