    You have a point on our infrastructure problems.

    Nuclear Power Plants are on another different level of safety regulations.

    Fukushima was a cluster fudge of disasters. Japanese also admitted to underestimating the sincerity of a disaster, one being a 9.0 earthquake. They have now updated and increases their safety factors.

    You are right though, in the end we can not trust that it would be safe, we the people would have to be vigilant and demand higher standards or force them to, though legal action like suing the company and gov’t.

    Information I found on Fukushima disaster, this one had more details: https://www.popularmechanics.com/science/energy/a6721/fukushima-nuclear-disaster-what-went-wrong-5508927/
