How we'll pay for it:

• Revenue backed bonds
• Investors buy bonds to support the new reactor.
• Bond purchase is paid back by selling electricity.
• Reduce current spending.
• Stop oil, coal, and gas subsidies estimated at $20.5 billion per year:
• End Oil and Gas Tax Subsidies Act of 2025
• Executive Order 14008, "Tackling the Climate Crisis at Home and Abroad"
• Let corporations fund their own reactors
• Close tax loopholes.
• Carried interest (income) taxed as capital gains costs the American people about $18 billion each year. That's enough to build at least one (and up to three) new power plants.
• Reduce other federal expenditures
• Annually, the government spends about $60 billion dollars on federal housing assistance for 5.4 million households. To build 5.4 million permanent low cost ($10k-$30k each) apartments would cost approximately $180 billion and be a one time payment. These apartments can be amortized with mortgages, paid for up front, and/or paid for with revenue backed bonds. The savings are enough to build 6-10 new power plants every year.
