I believe that Vermonters have been hoodwinked by a few activists and politicians who mistakenly believe they must protect the citizens of Vermont from a hypothetical Vermont Yankee accident.
Their statements, appearing in letters and news articles, are riddled with untruths about how nuclear power works and unsupported personal attacks on the intelligence, honesty, and commitment of Vermont Yankee employees.
Vermont Yankee workers are all safety-conscious, professional people. The forefront of their work ethic has always been the health and safety of the public - including their own families. I find it ironic that some will believe politicians are more honest and informed than skilled employees with families living near the plant.
The “anti-everything” activists are urging the state of Vermont to punish any people, business, or philosophy that does not agree with their views. The tail is wagging the dog.
