More cleanup issues facing LANL due to WIPP closure



The drum rupture in WIPP caused by the screwup in waste packaging not only shut the place down but also likely caused several years delay in the overall cleanup.

The head of VW resigned over much, much less of an issue. Yet, the same people are still at the top of LANL.

Things work differently at the NNSA national labs than at corporations like VW.

Charlie McMillan and his executive team will be rewarded for the big "improvements" they make in subsequent years. They'll not be fired. Instead, they'll collect some nice bonus rewards as all hazardous work slows down to a crawl causing the safety metrics to look better than ever before. Corrupt as it may seem, this is how it always plays out at the national labs.

Who gives a hoot about cleanup.? It's work for functionaries, it really doesn't matter. It is one of the many silly taxes lazy liberals place on successful goods producers to get a little taste, for fairness., for guilt, because otherwise, the lazy unproductive withhold their yes vote.

Boo Hoo.

Marie Antoinette offered the lazy Parisian cake. They drank blood instead. And liked it so much that they feasted on each other until a strong conservative returned order.

What a waste. Incompetent state legislators extort a payment from lazy, spineless, guilt ridden DOE functionaries. They throw away haed earned taxpayer cash on incompetent LANL program leaders who in turn hire incompetent subcontractors who suprizingly get nothing done correctly. It doesn't matter, so no onebpays attention and everone declates victory. When a troublemaking external stakeholder complains in an expose, all weep alligator tears, cry for justice and someone is sacrificed. Then the game goes on.

Cleanup doesnt matter. The vast undeveloped, uninhabited expanse of New Mexico is no different with or without a few ppm more or less of a chemical or radiological subsance.
