5. Before the Japan disaster, the DLC was pretending that nuclear plants werelike roads and
bridges.

An article written by Harold Ford, then DLC head, spoke of using infrastructure banks to repair and maintain our roads, bridges, nuclear plants, schools, etc., lumping in privately-owned nuclear plants with publicly-owned roads and bridges without explanation, as if there were no difference.

I can't give a link right now because my internet security is claiming an attack whenever I type www.dlc.org into the url bar, but I have given the link in prior posts.

As you may recall, President Obama mentioned infrastructure banks, which the DLC has been recommending for years, in his speech to a special joint session of Congress. (That special joint session was really something, wasn't it?)
