Passage Summary: The government says nuclear plants are perfectly safe, but they also passed a law to protect nuclear companies from going broke if an accident occurs. Since they admit the companies would only go broke if there were accidents, the author thinks the public is right to be worried.

Conclusion: The public's fear regarding the safety of nuclear power plants is actually justified.

Reasoning: The government claims plants are safe, yet they limited the industry's financial liability to prevent bankruptcy, which the government admits would only occur if accidents causing injuries actually happened.

Analysis: In a 'Must Be True' scenario, we treat the government's premises as absolute facts to see what they logically entail. The government's position contains a fascinating internal contradiction: they claim safety is absolute, yet they justify a policy based on the specific threat of accident-related bankruptcy. If we accept the government's own logic, we must conclude that the government believes accidents are at least a possibility. Look for an answer that highlights this admission that the risk of an accident is not zero.
