Fukushima Lawsuit Reveals Price of 'Abenomics'

The 26 U.S. military personnel suing Tokyo Electric Power Co. over its Fukushima disaster are playing a key role in exposing the dark side of "Abenomics."

Shinzo Abe wasn't prime minister on March 11, 2011 when a 9-magnitude quake and giant tsunami forever changed the relationship between nature and the reactors in Japan's midst. As Tepco's reactor melted down, causing the worst nuclear crisis since Chernobyl, Japan came dangerously close to losing Tokyo.
