Our stimulus tax-dollars hard at work funding studies like this.

The way our current government (both parties)is destroying the country, an occurrence like this may actually help improve things in DC.



Nuclear bomb in D.C. would devastate district, study finds

If a new government study is correct, the flash itself if a nuclear bomb was detonated in downtown D.C. would temporarily blind driver's miles away on the beltway.

A government study predicts that a fictional nuclear explosion, set off at an intersection near the White House, would destroy everything within half a mile.
45,000 would die and several hundred thousand would be injured.

We call it common sense, they call it a funded study.

I can see the government now.

"Well, what would happen if a bomb landed 1 mile away from the spot we "studied" before?" "We better do another government funded study to postulate what might happen in that case."

My 5 year old could offer to save them the millions they probably spent on this "study" and tell them what would happen. "Stuff would get blown up".
