Non-partisan CBO analysis confirms: The #OBBBA will add nearly $4 TRILLION, low estimates, to the national debt. It's fiscally reckless, burdening future generations for massive tax cuts for the wealthy. #NationalDebt #DeficitCrisis #FiscalIrresponsibility

Ontario's Commitment to Nuclear Power a Flawed and Financially Precarious Decision Ontario's commitment to expanding nuclear power is a deeply flawed and financially precarious decision, according to a recent analysis. The provincial government's plan, encompassing new nuclear plants and waste disposal facilities, carries a staggering price tag of approximately $300 billion. This massive investment is questioned, especially when considering the potential benefits of redirecting those funds. Imagine providing free heat pumps for every dwelling, or covering Toronto’s transit fares for three centuries – alternatives that would directly benefit Ontarians. Replacing half of Ontario’s passenger vehicles with electric vehicles, deploying free rooftop solar systems, or equipping farms with wind turbines present more fiscally responsible paths forward. The projected cost of electricity generated from these new nuclear plants, estimated at 24.4 cents per kilowatt-hour, significantly outpaces the 10 cents per kilowatt-hour associated with solar power combined with storage solutions, ultimately leading to higher bills for consumers. A significant risk lies in the possibility of these nuclear plants becoming "stranded assets." As renewable energy technologies continue to advance at a rapid pace and costs decline, the long-term viability of these massive nuclear investments is increasingly uncertain. The world is currently undergoing a profound energy transition, driven by the unprecedented growth of renewable sources. Data from the International Energy Agency’s *World Energy Outlook 2024* reveals that over 560 gigawatts of new renewable capacity were added in 2023, with annual clean energy investments rapidly approaching $2 trillion – exceeding investment in fossil fuels. This global shift stands in stark contrast to Ontario’s continued reliance on nuclear power. The province’s energy strategy is facing criticism on several fronts. Prioritizing nuclear power represents a financially irresponsible approach, overlooking readily available and more sustainable alternatives. Future generations risk bearing the burden of substantial nuclear debt and the potential consequences of stranded assets. Ultimately, Ontario's path deviates from the global movement toward cleaner, more affordable energy sources and saddles residents with significantly higher electricity costs.

A text meme calling out their fiscal irresponsibility with the premiums paid to them. That money is more like a trust and not a private piggy bank. A stylized caduceus in lower right corner made to look like the dollar symbol.

I honestly think we need to launch a class action lawsuit against insurance companies for fiscal irresponsibility, including fraud, for how they use the premiums paid to them. It appears criminal in practice.
