  • Worst case scenario: the Trump Justices recuse themselves pretending to care about conflict of interest. This allows them to avoid the mob and get rid of Trump. When he gets a negative ruling based on mostly the non-Trump judges, the Republicans are able to campaign on getting the presidency and a senate super majority, in order to impeach all of them and we end up with a 9-justice right wing court.

    The repbulican establishment would gladly sacrifice Trump to get the full court.


  • net profit

    That’s how you get hollywood accounting. It should either be based on revenue or some multiple of the cost of doing it correctly the first time (multiple being based on risk of getting caught) or some multiple of the cost of investigating. Either that, and/or everyone in a management position that knew about these kids should be criminally charged and barred from management positions in similar workplaces.

    should be paid to the kids and their families

    That’s how you get families exploiting their kids to get them into dangerous jobs just to turn around for the payoff. The families should also be investigated for letting their kids work dangerous jobs.


    • Because “existing” thorium salt tech is even more experimental than the designs various companies are working on.
    • Because HALEU fuel is intended for (a) reactors with higher power densities which is antithetical to breeder reactors and (b) reactors with longer cycles which is antithetical to salt coolant.
    • Because Th-232 is a fertile isotope, not fissile, so it doesn’t actually help you run a reactor until you have already been running for a few years (i.e. you’re gonna need uranium fuel to start your thorium cycle).
