Dear Friends,
Thank you for volunteering to serve on the Revived Thorium-Fission Working Group.
***************
Text of So-Called Inflation-Reduction Act of 2022 – ASAP Review
Our first project is an ASAP review of the Schumer-Manchin so-called “Inflation-Reduction Act of 2022” which nobody saw coming (including Sen. Kyrsten Sinema!!!).
The title is typical Washington MIS-LABELING since it is really a Global-Warming (aka Climate Change) Bill. Indeed, 493 of its 725 pages (68%) deal with Global-Warming/Climate Change provisions – while the other 32% deals with how to finance them.
The Senate-Democrat one-page summary is available at https://www.democrats.senate.gov/imo/me ... ummary.pdf.
The Senate-Democrat 725-page text of the bill is available at https://www.democrats.senate.gov/imo/me ... f_2022.pdf.
The “No Trespassing Except For Lobbyists” sign comprises the fact that the Senate Democrats do NOT even have the decency to provide a Table of Contents for their bill. Accordingly, I have generated one which appears directly below the closing valediction of this e-mail – AND WHICH LISTS THE PAGE NUMBER OF THE 725-PAGE BILL ON WHICH EACH LISTED ITEM BEGINS.
This Table of Contents is “bare bones” for Subtitle A – Deficit Reduction, Subtitle B – Prescription Drug Pricing Reform, and Subtitle C – Affordable Care Act Subsidies -- since they are outside the purview of our Working Group.
The Table of Contents for the remaining 68% of the bill lists the caption for each Title, each Subtitle and each Section with the page number on which the item begins.
***************
Overall Comments
Please hold for later any overall comments such as –
(1) Whether the bill spends wisely the revenues it allegedly raises.
(2) Whether the bill is ineffective because China and India, the world’s two larges carbon polluters, aren’t required to do anything significant under the Paris Climate Accord for decades and, indeed, China is bringing on stream a new monster-size coal-fired electric-generation plant every week.
(3) Etc.
***************
Economic/Safe Thorium-Fission vs. Uneconomic Wind/Solar
The subsidies for wind/solar permeate the Bill to such an extent that it is NOT worthwhile to catalog all of them.
Unfortunately, the old Washington saying is true that once a subsidy is started, it is impossible to kill it.
It is respectfully suggested that we confine our review of the bill to ascertain whether there are any provisions that help or hinder nuclear energy in general or thorium-fission in particular.
If there are any that hinder, we can discuss what action to take – which, since we are now “in extremis,” would probably mean importuning Senate Democrats who have supported Bill Gates’
(1) Nuclear Energy Innovation and Modernization Act which became law 1/14/2019, and
(2) Nuclear Energy Leadership Act of 2019 which was introduced 3/27/2019 but did not pass the Senate 2019-2020 despite 22 co-sponsors including 9 Democrats – Cory Booker (NJ), Joe Manchin (WVa), Sheldon Whitehouse (RI), Christopher Coons (Del), Tammy Dickworth (Illinois), Michael Bennet (CO), Doug Jones (Ala), Benjamin Cardin (MD), and Mark Warner (Va).
***************
Please provide your comments ASAP, hopefully by the end of today since time is so short.
Your friend,
John K.
PS – This legislation review makes me feel young again – from when I was (1) the Amn Bar Assoc’s Technical Reviewer 1996-2002 for International Aspects of Submissions to the U.S. Government by All Tax Section Committees, (2) Chair 1994-1996 of the Amn Bar Asssoc’s Foreign Tax Committee (the nation’s 300 top international tax attorneys with 22 working subcommittees), and (3) Chair 1987-1994 of various subcommittees of the Amn Bar Assoc’s Foreign Tax Committee.

Thorium-Fission Working Group Review of the So-Called Inflation-Reduction Act of 2022
.
This section contains information about each of our so-called “Working Groups” that are currently underway.
During our 19 years of existence, we have had 5-6 so-called Working Groups whenever a particular policy issue (1) may require immediate action on the spur of the moment (rendering addressing it at the next regular monthly meeting impractical), and/or (2) may require long-term attention.
*****
Recent examples in the second category (“long-term attention”) are
(1) Our 2016-2018 Working Group to oppose the Destruction/Extinction of Great Salt Lake to grow alfalfa hay to feed Chinese cows, and
(2) Our 2018-2019 Thorium-Fission Working Group to solve global warming 100% in short order WITHOUT having to invade other countries militarily (such as China to prevent it from bringing on stream another monster-size coal-fired electric-generation plant EVERY WEEK) when the only economic green-energy source is nuclear (which even Bill Gates recognizes) and it is 100% safe if the fuel is thorium which is incapable of exploding so it cannot be used to produce a bomb, and which does NOT even need cooling systems or containment chambers.
*****
APPALLING example in the first (“short-fuse”) category --
The need for Working Groups in the first category was first recognized more than 12 years ago -- as described on the face of this bulletin board for Sec. 3 entitled “Possible Topics for Future Meetings” in the portion entitled “SHORT-FUSE NOTICE” describing, inter alia, the Yale University Biology Department’s creation of “Chimeras” with 50% human DNA and 50% Chimp DNA and PLANS TO CREATE “Chimeras” with 75% human DNA and 25% Chimp DNA.
Appallingly, this information was brought to our attention by a report on the PBS Newshour comprising an interview of a Yale Biology Prof. by Gwen Ifill, Co-Anchor and Managing Editor of the PBS NewsHour.
(1) “Appallingly” because Gwen Ifill who conducted the interview, was oblivious to the issue of the Nazi’s definition of a Jew based on the percentage of Jewish heritage and the Ante-Bellum American South’s definition of African-American based on the percentage of Sub-Saharan-African heritage.
(2) But, even more “appallingly,” Gwen Ifill failed to ask the obvious question = What happens if the 50%-50% “Chimaera” then already created happens to exhibit as DOMINANT TRAITS 100% Human DNA and as RECESSIVE TRAITS 100% Chimp DNA!!! Which, of course, would mean that Yale U. was treating as a lab rat a “Chimaera” that is 100% Human!!!
Gwen Ifill’s report of the Yale Biology Department’s Human/Chimp “Chimeras” was the topic of our 4/9/2008 meeting for which attendees were required to watch “The Island” – a 2005 movie starring Scarlett Johansson and Ewan McGregor who are clones of wealthy individuals who have financed the creation of their clones so that their vital organs can be “harvested” if the wealthy individuals ever need transplants. [“Harvesting” meant, of course, death for the clone!!!]
*****
Chimera Reprise and Our “Short Fuse” Response -
Unfortunately, a Proposal from the National Institute of Health (NIH) regarding “Chimera” research appeared in The Federal Register of 8/5/2016 and had a 9/6/2016 deadline for public comments!!!
So our 9/14/2016 meeting, which was the first for which our focus had not already been determined as of 8/5/2016 under our normal rules, was too late.
We formed a “Short Fuse” Working Group and filed comments with the NIH before their 9/6/2016 deadline!!!
