DONALD TRUMP, CHAIRMAN & CEO, TRUMP HOTELS & CASINO RESORTS: Japan is really -- it's been a linchpin, and hasn't been doing so well over the last 10 years, frankly. But it has been a strong player and a big player. And when you see what's happening, and ultimately what could happen to nuclear energy in terms of a worldwide feeling, is not a good thing. CAVUTO: Are we overreacting, Germany sidelining some nuclear reactors, E.U. reconsidering it, Joe Lieberman in this country saying maybe take a look at new licenses? TRUMP: Well, when you see what's going on in Japan, certainly you can't say overreacting, but, look, nuclear is a way that we get what we have to get, which is energy. I think that probably there's not an overreaction, but we have to be very, very careful. I worry about terrorists. I worry about other things beyond just that. We have the earthquakes. Now, New York has been fairly earthquake-free and certain other areas, but you also have them in California. And, certainly, that's a ground zero-type site. We have to be very concerned. I'm in favor of nuclear energy, very strongly in favor of nuclear energy. You know, it's sort of interesting. Somebody was explaining if a plane goes down, people keep flying. If you get into an auto crash, people keep driving. There are problems in life. Not everything is so perfect. You have to look very carefully, though, at really taking care; have the best, the best people in terms of safeguards for nuclear energy. But we do need nuclear energy, and we need a lot of it fast. CAVUTO: But if you're Saudi Arabia or you're OPEC and you're looking at this, you're just rubbing your hands together. TRUMP: They are absolutely salivating. Now, who knows how long they're going to be around? They're only there because of us. It always amazes me when they raise the price. You know, they raise the price. Nobody ever talks to them. Nobody ever says you are not going to do this. It really is. But they must be... CAVUTO: So, you're saying that's them raising the prices, not the markets and fear leading the price? TRUMP: No, it's not the markets. It's OPEC. Look, I have been hearing about speculators. I know speculators. They only wish they had that kind of power. They set the price of oil. If they did it in this country, it would be called an illegal deal. It would be illegal. They'd go to jail. (CROSSTALK) CAVUTO: So you think they are deliberately colluding to do this? TRUMP: Well, of course. It's OPEC. I mean, that's what they do. (CROSSTALK) CAVUTO: Donald, if they overdo it, they could shoot themselves. TRUMP: Twelve guys sitting around a table, and they are having an absolute field day, because we have nobody to go and call and talk and say, fellows, you are not going to do it. If you do it, you have got big, problems. They wouldn't even be there, except for us, Neil. Without us, they wouldn't even exist. CAVUTO: But what do you think they think about our reaction to go slow on drilling here, even in the face of this? TRUMP: I think it's -- I think it's incredible that we are going slow on drilling. I think it's beyond anything I have ever seen that we go slow on drilling. And there are always going to be problems. You are going to have an oil spill. You are going to have this. You clean it up and you will fix it up and it will be fine. And people have already almost forgotten... CAVUTO: Well, the Gulf thing was more than a little deal, though, right? Right? TRUMP: It was a disaster. It was a disaster. It got solved. CAVUTO: But do you think, without that, they would be rushing more... (CROSSTALK) TRUMP: No, I don't think they would. I mean, it's amazing. CAVUTO: Oh, so that's an excuse? TRUMP: No. I just think -- I don't think they would. It's incredible that we're not going -- I have people in the business who say, it's impossible to get a permit to drill. So, you can imagine how hard it is to get nuclear and other things. But they say it's almost impossible. And the Saudi's -- I have so many friends over on the other side. They are salivating. They can't believe that this country -- if you look at certain things, like natural gas, we're the Saudi Arabia times a hundred of natural gas. But we don't use it. There so are many different ways, beyond the nuclear. The nuclear really does have its issues; let's face it. I mean it's not a pretty sight, when you look at Japan and you see what is going on. It does have issues. CAVUTO: Right. TRUMP: You look at natural gas, we have more than anybody. We are the biggest. We don't use it. CAVUTO: This president lately, in all seriousness, Donald, has gotten some criticism for how he has reacted and what he has done as this earthquake news has been unfolding. Now, presidents are entitled to their weekends, of course, but reports that he was golfing, going to a Gridiron dinner as we're getting more serious reports out of Tokyo.

The Donald has a nuclear powered bankroll and is willing to put up 600 million of it up to become president. He can tell both George Soros, AND the Koch Bros to F' off, if he feels like it. What other candidate can accomplish that?
I recall a re-run of MASH I saw where this uber right winger named Colonel Flagg... So Trump can go bankrupt over and over, and come out of it rich, again and again? So that the top 400 can own more wealth than the Bottom 155 million? Why do these psychopaths manage to survive as long as they do.
Why do you hate successful people? What do you disagree with Trump on, as in the issues?
To Recap: It took the Soviets 600 000 troops/volunteers 7 months to get one reactor under 'control'. Top/Sides/and most importantly, Underneath. And the State requisitioned everything regardless of price. And they can't evacuate Tokyo, a city of 36 million. We're at the beginning of the beginning. A 9 will hit SoCal. And then what. There are 34 BWR's in the US, just like FU 1. 7 (on the Nuke Scale) X 6 = 42. 6 Chernobyls. Plus Spent Fuel Rods at all 6.
If you ever want to change your screen name to chicken little. Just let me know.
god dammit. Stick your head in the sand, A K. Tell me where I've been wrong since this little 'episode' started. You're one of those in the Epic Fail movies that are giving us Dirty Fuckin Hipies shit up to the moment the wave/explosion hits. So, to recap your POV. Chernobyl was no big deal. We can keep spent fuel rods covered with water forever, even though we have no where else to put the radiation that will last for 10 000 years. I got that right? You'll correct me I'm sure. ;} Note the EU Energy Minister: 'Out of Control in hours'. USSA MSM translation: 'EU Minister says Situation will be a disaster soon.'
"by Jan Lundberg 16 March 2011 ImageIn traditional cultures that cared for the land, all people enjoyed generation after generation of living reasonably, if not perfectly or with fabulous wealth. Food was grown locally, as were plant medicines and materials for clothing and shelter. Some big trees were left standing, taken only occasionally for a long-lasting community purpose such as a dugout canoe -- not for one man's private patio. This time-honored way of living did not see freeways or nuclear power stations take over the landscape and pollute the air and water, or change the way people related to each other or to the land. But as Western Civilization advanced, the notions of progress and growth took root and became major pursuits. This assured the spiral of greed and expansion that has culminated in vast projects beyond the human scale: shopping malls, port facilities for huge cargo ships, downtown skyscrapers, and industrial agriculture. And nukes." Your children/prodigy will curse you and your religion. Gods are in control of this planet. But they're not nice. ;}
Chernobyl was no big deal. We can keep spent fuel rods covered with water forever, even though we have no where else to put the radiation that will last for 10 000 years. I got that right? You'll correct me I'm sure. ;} Show me where I said Chernobyl was no big deal. As far as the waste. Their should be a locaton to store the stuff. It is a big country.
"Chicken Little" In reply to my post that where I heavily referenced Chernobyl. Next.
WWJD BWHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH Oh yeah, as your Sweet Baby Hesus dismounts from his dino and enters the Temple of the Money Changers. The only time I believe where Your ManGod loses his temper. Isn't that correct, A K? 8D
Top 400 have more wealth than the Bottom 155 million. Greatest Wealth disparity in World History. If we eliminate their wealth, which the Bottom 98% will never see, do we need all these nukes still? 8D
All the Banksters have left. Everyone. Cost to book a 14 seat jet One Way Tokyo to Sidney? Priceless. 8D
Everyone. Cost to book a 14 seat jet One Way Tokyo to Sidney? Priceless. 8D No. Not really. US$275 000 cash would do it. Payable in HK $'s. 8D
In 5 years there won't be 500 000 people in Tokyo. Now what will happen to the other 35.5 million is the Multi Trillion Dollar question. New Capital btw is Osaka.
Damn. Just look at all that spam. And you do it all the time.
Well, [W.A-R.'s] got to do something for attention, his multiple personalities aren't speaking to him any more, and his imaginary friends keep finding excuses not to come over.
Oh YEah, LMFAO, that's the problem with this site and the world. My 'spam'. Go back to reading about Rep Party's HQ shot at. Give you something to do, while the US Empire crumbles. Just look at this. The crux of the disagreement (USSA NEWS saying it's because of the size of the Evac Zone-They can't stop lying :twisted: ): [quote]# # An official at the Nuclear and Industrial Safety Administration says three of the plant's six reactors - Nos. 1, 5 and 6 - are relatively stable. The official could not confirm whether water was covering spent fuel rods in reactor No. 4. - Top U.S. nuclear regulator earlier said no water was left in No. 4 reactor cooling pool, radiation levels extremely high. [/quote] [quote]# Power plant operator says it started work on Thursday to connect outside power cables to the plant. It later says the earliest time electricity could be re-connected is Friday. # Japan's nuclear agency said the No.2 reactor will be the first to receive electricity because it has a roof and will try to use power for internal mechanisms. [/quote] OK. You've just come out of coma, or been hiking in the wilderness: And you see the above quotes. Tell me you're not going to be freaking out. Please.
Spam.

600 000 spent fuel rods. On. Above. Near. But. Outside Reactor cores. on fire. 6 chernobyls on steroids.
If you want to put Chernobyl in perspective, you could compare it to a car; they designed a high-horsepower race car... with no brakes. A very good technical summary of what really happened at Chernobyl, can be found HERE. Western designs use a negative temperature coefficient, and water as both a moderator and coolant. The claims that Japan will be "worse than Chernobyl," are a joke. A bunch of MSM blow-dried talking heads, spouting shit on a subject that they'll never fully understand, much less competently grasp at a superficial level. The libs harp on the nuclear waste- a red-herring if there ever WAS one- and then immediately switch to Chernobyl, when you don't buy their propaganda. Like every other agenda of the leftists, the anti-nuke agenda relies on ignorance and stupidity, to motivate their flock of sheeple.
Socialist ass-hats think "There will be no more money when the U.S. dollar has no value, until that time we can keep printing more." And yes, that IS from LF's answer to Ben Bernanke, go65, leading disfunctional and delusional socialist of the forum. "You want me to kill THE ENEMIES of Jappos, I'll kill THE ENEMIES of Jappos, Rebs, or Sioux, or Cheyenne... For 500 bucks a month I'll kill whoever you want. But keep one thing in mind: I'd happily kill you for free." Algren, "The Last Samurai" To put Chernobyl in perspective. If it had blown it would've destroyed 1/2 of Europe.

Mexico will lose a quarter if its population, mcgoon.
tick tock. 100% chance of 9.0 higher hitting SoCal/MidUS w/in 200 years. At least 17 reactors will be inoperable in 40 years. Not even thinking past the next generation. That's psychotic. "JAIF detects hydrogen above the spent pool of reactor 4" Are they trying to repair or contain. IS all this just a show? If so, the Ratings are horrible. ;}
The correct view of sovereignty is as follows: 1. The people and only the people are sovereign. 2. The people can constitute a body to incarnate this sovereignty, whatever they choose to call this body. Government is the most common term, but it can also be called other things. 3. Whatever its form and name, this sovereign entity cannot then create a new sovereign form which it then places prior to itself. This is a conceptual absurdity, a constitutional abdication, and a political usurpation. Yet that’s precisely what the “natural entity” theory of corporations claims: That even though a corporation is an artificial creation of government, it is also prior to the government in its rights and prerogatives. We see how it’s impossible for the government to charter a corporation, thereby creating an extension of itself, and then declare this extension not only outside itself but prior to itself." attempter.wordpress.com Us or them, CE. US or them.
In 200 years there's a 100 % chance of a 9.0+ temblor affecting at least 17 reactors in the US. In 40 years all of these reactors will be so brittle from nuclear bombardment as to be useless. Our elder statesmen are therefore by definition psychopathic in demanding that these plants stay open. They're not even thinking past the generation of their children. After 3Mile, Chernobyl, and now Fukushima we have Three Events and that's a pattern.
Yes, eco-nuts have obstructed improvements in all cases, and contributed to the problem. They need more scorn and ridicule, and then to be ignored. One thing hObama is doing right is building new improved nuke plants. If he would do his job, enforce the law, and deport 50M+ illegal alien invaders, the number being constructed might be enough.
I recall a re-run of MASH I saw where this uber right winger named Colonel Flagg... Please provide specific engineering data to support such a conclusion. Do you even realize there's a DIFFERENCE between the Chernobyl design and the GE designs? I suggest you take what the MSM and politicians tell you, with a 50-pound bag of salt...

Algren, "The Last Samurai" You're the Kochsucker who predicted the evacuation of the entire Gulf Coast and a million fatalities due to Obama's oil disaster. You have no credibility, mcgoon.
The psycho path Immelt/GE has been trying to salvage the reactor. The spent fuel pools were blown away. They're no longer where they're supposed to be. When they have to move the Emperor, Japan goes back to Shogun. Read the book. "He said officials should have admitted earlier how serious the radiation leaks were. Chief Cabinet Secretary Yukio Edano said: 'The unprecedented scale of the earthquake and tsunami that struck Japan, frankly speaking, were among many things that happened that had not been anticipated under our disaster management contingency plans." This is precisely as Zero Hedge had expected would happen all along, following our recurring allegations of a massive cover up by the Japanese government. And furthermore as we predicted a week ago when we said that continued government lies and subversions would make the situation untenable once the population loses faith in the government, this is precisely what has happened."
they're trying to salvage the reactors google that. I'm number two on the page. Fucking psychopath nuclear engineers. They admit that cost benefit analysis doesn't allow for lead lined pools.
How's the GOM evacuation proceeding, psycho Kochsucker?
Mar 18 2011, 04:54 PM DailyMail "Radiation is streaming into the atmosphere from the used uranium rods at reactor number four, after a 45ft-deep storage pool designed to keep them stable boiled dry in a fire." 1. The pools are 45 ft deep. 2. The pools caught fire from the hydrogen that was continuing to be produced from the Zirconium + Water reaction. Another before photo of the spent pool inside #4 before: Deputy director general of the NISA, Hideohiko Nishiyama, also admitted that they do not know if the reactors are coming under control.
