You didn't respond as to how Nevada will be damaged and why it needs to be compensated in advance by me.

Yes, I have. Not my fault if you missed it.

Why should this state have to prove anything?

Poor logic for an arguement, if you ask me.

So you won't mind if I start running truck / train loads of hazardous waste down your town's streets. And you won't mind if I tell you that I'm going to dump that hazardous waste in an unstable storage area. I'm telling you it is safe, therefore it is.

You are fixated on the fact that because the Fed says its ok, that is good enough for you.

You prove how your state will be damaged by NOT shipping the crap to my state.

Nevada did not generate your waste, nor benefit from the process that generated that waste.

Tell me why we should be forced to take the garbage?

Your state made it, you keep it. Again, prove how your state will be damaged in doing so.

It's a pretty fundamental legal principle that the party claiming damages has to prove them before they can be awarded.

You can't.

Whining about stuff going down the street doesn't cut it.

If and when Nevada suffers damages from this, there will be no question that the federal government will rush in to repair the damage and compensate anyone who was harmed.

The notion that Nevada should be sent big checks for whining ranks right there with the concept of slavery reparations on the absurdity scale.
