No nuclear waste in Utah

I am not convinced Utah should be the burial grounds for the world's nuclear and radioactive low-level waste. EnergySolutions keeps filling the airways with ads saying how reasonable and safe it is to do so. It just doesn't make sense to me.

There's obviously a lot of money in this line of business, and I think Utah is targeted because we're easy. I don't buy EnergySolution's ad that radioactive waste is over some people's underground watershed, so it's shipped here instead. Each state must take care of it's own waste and other countries should bury this stuff in their own backyard.

Companies like EnergySolutions ought to go to the individual states and other countries and build facilities in their backyard instead of bringing everything here. I believe using Utah as a dumping ground has got to stop. We've got to nip this before it becomes radioactively out of hand.
