P!
WOH! This is interesting and lends to my tagline. Take away guns in a society, badguys can make their own knives and you will have nothing.
Even in the US when I worked in the industry, the persons most exposed to radiation were the HP techs. They would be cleaning the areas and no doubt injest some alpha emiters; which is the worst.
These were also the same people who drove high performance motorcycles. High risk as a lifestyle.
I never heard that nuclear power plant workers had a lower life expectancy or more than a very slight increase in cancer rates. And they’ve got a good salary in the US. And Japan is supposed to be so meticulous and up to date with all their engineering.
So why on earth would the yakuza have cornered the labor market? Maybe the atom bombs terrified the Japanese so that they really really don’t want to work at nuke plants - but if they’re that scared why have nuke plants at all? Or why not have the most fanatic schedule of inspections imaginable?
The Samarai went Yakuza...
But then Japan has always had Mob Rule by mobsters.. or an Emperor (which is just a Mob)..
They know nothing else.. Democracy or Mob Rule has always been Japanese..
The Government is a Mob the Yakuza is a Mob..
Probably they are also cross pollinated..
Some gov’t officials are Yakuza and some Yakuza are elected officials..
Mobs rule there..
Its like Mexico, Mexico has no government..
The Mexican gov’t is a/the Mob... depends on which Cartel is on top..
Same is true in all of URP.. Slavic countrys, Russia, India, and China..
The mid-east is totally tribal(Mobs)...
You know it looks like the same is true in America.. for sure Canada is Mob controlled..
This elected could and probably is Kabuki Theater..
