LIves on the line

Can it just be me? Am I the only one noticing that at the very moment here in the United States we're trying to finish the job of killing off our unions for good, workers in Japan are risking their lives to save their people? It's not plant owners there in radiation suits pouring seawater onto fuel rods in a desperate hope to avoid complete meltdown. It's workers. And not the workers who make the big salaries, either.Anyhow, days after the earthquake and tsunami, Japan's crisis has become an infrastructure crisis.
