Exactly right. The people of Fukushima were told those plants were perfectly safe. They were told they were the way to economic success. They were told that the power plants would bring prosperity and jobs for decades.
And what they got was a nuclear dead zone. Most will never be able to return to their homes.
They were lied to. If the nuclear industry were honest and stopped telling us how many chest x-rays their latest disaster was equivalent to, we might have an idea of how much nuclear power we want to use and where. But they are not. They are wretched lying propagandists, readily assisted by hack writers beguiled by the opportunity of turning the nuclear industry’s talking points into quick gotcha articles to persecute the tree huggers.
It gets old after a while. You get tired of seeing the same old talking points over and over again while new radiation plagues the earth.

Totally TRUE!! Why aren’t these executives marched at gunpoint into THEIR radioactive mess to clean it up???
SLATE had a report “Fukushima’s Bio-Robots
In Japan’s nuclear cleanup, is human life cheaper than machines?”
