But would the $$$ really go to auto safety or other safety concerns?

Would utilities pass some of their savings to the auto industry?  Would

hospitals use their savings to hire or train more nurses or CHPs?  Would

industries spend their saving to better educate the public on why the

increase in dose limits was really no cause for concern anyway?
