1. I have a better idea. The officers of the energy companies
and the politicians who were behind all of this need to make the sacrifice. It would be the honorable thing to do.

3. I dunno.
Doesn't the Japanese Samurai culture condone suicide for honor?

5. The Japanese have much of that level of honor in their traditions.
If anyone could do it, to save themselves, and parts of the rest of the world, it's them.

10. Different cultures
One has a history of self-sacrifice for others... The other had a history of sacrificing the little guy with or without his consent.

12. Good question. I happen to believe that heroism is actually one of the more common parts of humanity

By and large... we rush in to danger to save those in need. We've seen it time and time and time again.

But there's no question that a small percentage of americans would see dollar signs and try to make a buck.

13. There would be those who would volunteer to go in
knowing full well the consequences.

Hopefully we will never need to find out.

15. Sounds like it to me too
Stop the madness and shut these fucking nuclear power plants down and commence to cleaning up the sites as much as is possible. Those sites will never be safe again for man or beast
