US Offers Weapons-Grade Material to Corporations, Citing 'Energy Needs'
Yes, the headline is correct. The US, with a straight face, is dangling 'surplus' weapons-grade plutonium from cold war stockpiles to commercial energy companies. This isn't some rogue outfit; this is the Department of Energy actively enabling the spread of materials historically reserved for existential threats. One might wonder if the next logical step is a 'Nuclear Starter Kit' from Amazon.
Ignoring expert warnings about safety risks, this move accelerates the convergence of civilian nuclear power with military applications. This isn't just about energy; it's about normalizing the commercial handling of weapons material. The same political system that can't agree on a functional healthcare plan is now confidently managing the privatization of mass destruction. What could possibly go
wrong?
