The debate over the future of nuclear power continues to rage on, with conflicting views on its economic viability and environmental benefits. Despite recent optimism surrounding new nuclear power deployment, the underlying economics of nuclear energy remain unchanged. According to a recent Washington Post editorial and a Department of Energy report, nuclear power is seen as a promising zero-carbon energy source. However, historical and recent experiences with nuclear power in the United States suggest otherwise.

On another note, a working paper from the Peterson Institute for International Economics (PIIE) delves into the potential economic impacts of mass deportation. The paper explores two scenarios based on past deportation efforts, one involving the removal of 1.3 million undocumented workers and the other targeting 8.3 million workers. Both scenarios are predicted to have negative effects on the U.S. economy, with GDP projected to decrease by 1.2 percent and 7.4 percent, respectively.

The Federal Reserve has also come under scrutiny for publishing questionable climate research. A Fed working paper by economist Michael Kiley has faced criticism for its conclusions on the economic impacts of temperature increases. Nobel Prize-winning economist William Nordhaus has emphasized that the effects of warming temperatures on GDP growth are minimal compared to expected economic growth. Kiley’s analysis has been called into question for attributing significant GDP reductions to minor temperature increases, using flawed data from countries like Rwanda and Equatorial Guinea.

Lastly, the topic of NATO expansion and the proposed membership of Ukraine has sparked controversy. While Western leaders argue that NATO expansion is crucial for Europe’s security, critics point to the negative consequences of such actions. The invasion of Ukraine by Russia in 2022, which reportedly led to hundreds of thousands of casualties and cost billions of dollars, has raised doubts about the effectiveness of NATO’s expansion. Some scholars advocate for a more cautious approach, urging the US to withdraw troops from Europe and allow Europe to take the lead in its own defense, in line with the original intentions of NATO’s founders.

Overall, these ongoing debates highlight the complexities of energy policy, immigration, climate research, and international security. It is essential to consider all perspectives and evidence when making decisions that impact society and the environment.
