Shizuoka tells tea retailer to conceal radiation info

Yes, the ostrich-method continues to function perfectly in Japan

I know I'm on powdered milk because I cannot trust the authorities in either country regarding the Japanese nuclear fallout.

That was when they were still testing.

Shortly after that they stopped all the testing, saying there was no more radiation. :wtf:

Around the same time, the efforts by the Repiglickins to repeal "Obamacare" and get rid of
Medicare and Medicaid suddenly became a lot more frantic to the point where they are obviously
harming themselves politically.

What do they expect to happen in 10 years (when Medicare as we know it, would end, if the Repigs have their way)?

It's the cancers that will be caused here by the radiation that is spewing from Fukushima.

They don't want all the poor people who are going to get cancer from this clogging up "their" hospitals,
and they most surely don't want to pay for it!
