The unfolding nuclear disaster in Japan actually is a Made-in-USA crisis: All six of the reactors at the Fukushima Daiichi plant were made by General Electric .

Even China, known for its lack of respect for safety issues, has announced that it is suspending new plant approvals until it could strengthen safety standards.
