Mueller's favorite place to pray (written about in "Prophet's Way"), and the roof of the room where the Last Supper is reputed to have happened.
From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"Thom Hartmann is a creative thinker and committed small-d democrat. He has dealt with a wide range of topics throughout his life, and this book provides an excellent cross section. The Thom Hartmann Reader will make people both angry and motivated to act."
From Cracking the Code:
"No one communicates more thoughtfully or effectively on the radio airwaves than Thom Hartmann. He gets inside the arguments and helps people to think them through—to understand how to respond when they’re talking about public issues with coworkers, neighbors, and friends. This book explores some of the key perspectives behind his approach, teaching us not just how to find the facts, but to talk about what they mean in a way that people will hear."
From Unequal Protection, 2nd Edition:
"Hartmann combines a remarkable piece of historical research with a brilliant literary style to tell the grand story of corporate corruption and its consequences for society with the force and readability of a great novel."
Money rules in America.. Money can get the voters to do whatever the big money interests want.. And they want nuclear power because its profitable for them (but the worst of all possible choices for people)..
Most of the uninformed public won't even care! Money talks, so it will continue.
I really think enough people will be against it that Nuclear power will not be the force it might have been. I'm sure more plants will be built, but I suspect mostly in China, or other places where the people have no say.
I think we're getting the message. One problem we face is the corporate media and the tendency for Americans to be swayed by that media. If Media rules the day, Nuclear will see another day. If there are enough of "us" keeping the message of concern going, we have a chance to end it now.
The Darlington nuclear power plant in Ontario cost $14 billion which is 7X initial estimates to build.I realize that Toronto has the worst air quality in the nation due to coal fired plants but wind is the way to go.There has been much misinformation about wind turbines and much NIMBYism, but the acid rain from coal plants knows no bounds.
Big money controls the media, so we will have more nuclear (because big business wants it).. And yeah, they cost a "LOT" to build (this is where it is profitable for big business.. typically with tax money subssidies which transferes our tax money to private business)..
