A couple hundred years after the Hellfire club fell to ruin a more sinister club emerged. The Atomic Energy Commission. But the AEC is not the only bad actor in our lesson today. Oh no, the US government had their hands dirty too.
From America's favorite Oatmeal brand, to the US Navy, to hospitals, citizens of this oh so great country were- without their informed consent- exposed to radioactive materials in various ways.
And when these crimes came to light, absolutely nothing was done for the victims, or to prevent these things from happening again.
