<<The 1986 accident at the Chernobyl nuclear plant cost the former Soviet Union more than three times the economical benefits accrued from the operation of every other Soviet nuclear power plant operated between 1954 and 1990.>>

    

Does this include the costs incurred by the fear-mongering, anti-nuclear contingents responsible for unnecessary evacuations, post-traumatic stress disorders caused by fear that was disproportinate to the actual hazard, and psychosomatic illnesses inflicted on an unwitting public by the insistence that regulatory fatal cancer risks, and other health risk estimates represented actual cancer and health risks?


I'm just curious.
