I'd be very surprised if the Atlasian tax system recognises marriage - has the government gone back into the marriage business while I wasn't paying attention?

Did it ever formally leave the marriage business. I'm asking seriously rather than snarkily. Note my relatively recent (March, 2009) registration Wink. Insight from an old time veteran like yourself would be helpful here.

Sorry - wasn't trying to be snarky myself - I don't pay enough attention to know for sure.
Anyway, this bill was what I was thinking of.

Interesting point (and not taken as snarkily; I was referring to my question and trying to phrase it in a way that didn't sound like I was being bitchy Wink). Still, from my brief review of Article 2 it appears "marriages" are still in effect, but just all relabeled as "civil unions". So I'd guess the same laws apply, but the term "marriage" is just legally anachronistic rather than void.

I suppose I'd be willing to update the terminology when I rehash the chart into a table as True Con suggested again, once someone can show me how to do that. Embarrassed

EDIT: One can also review a more legible readout of the tax rates at the source, linked here:

Invasion of the Body Scanners

(AMPG) This weekend passengers aboard Flight 345 from Nyman raised their voices in protest today against what they deemed invasive body scans and pat downs. Flight protesters complained that scans and pat downs made them feel "violated". Many have lodged complaints at the office of Secretary of Internal Affairs Doctor Cynic.

"We feel that the Secretary doesn't care about our civil liberties despite his long talk of it. We demand that his office bring an end to this invasive procedure," one passenger commented.

Pilots and staff reported passengers becoming "visibly unruly and belligerent" on board the plane soon after being subjected to new TSA security procedures including frisks and full body scans of randomly selected flyers. The flight's departure was delayed by over 90 minutes as TSA air marshalls were dispatched to the plane. Passengers report the marshalls spoke to passengers urging calm and the flight eventually proceded to its destination in Detroit without further incident. No arrests were reported.

This latest disturbance follows a week of reported disturbances at airports around the nation resulting in multiple passengers being denied admittance to their flights after refusing to submit to body scans. At least 3 subjects have been arrested in separate incidents at LaGuardia Airport in New York and Peter International in Chicago following conflicts with TSA security staff.

The Internal Affairs Office has been requested for a statement, as has noted TSA critic Senator Libertas (POP: At-large).

A statement will be issued immidiately to deal with this issue from my office. We'd like the AMPG to know that we will be working diligently to address everyone's concerns.

SoIA Dr. Cynic Responds to TSA Controversy:

(AMPG) Moments ago the Secretary Dr. Cynic issued a written statement regarding ongoing complaints over new TSA security measures for airplane passengers:

NOTICE:

With regards to the issue of bodyscanning and the TSA, as well as the complaints lodged to this office...

Although final say so lies with the President, I am making the recommendation that body scanning be officially ended. My office will be instructing TSA security in a new procedure. They will no longer be allowed to touch sensitive areas of male and female passengers. These include the "private parts". I'm recommending that children and those with developmental disabilities be exempt from patdowns.

Passengers may lodge official requesting for their refunds, which this office demands be granted and none of those passengers will be placed on no-fly lists. However, the three persons arrested for assault will not be released, and will instead have to go through the traditional channels in the judiciary.

What this office can do, it will do. I make these recommendations to President Fritz and he can either go along or deny my requests. For those who have felt violated and have been inconvenienced, this office offers profound apologies.



DR. CYNIC, SOIA

Other updates to follow as this story develops.

President Fritz Ends TSA Body Scans; Legislation Introduced to Ban TSA

(AMPG) Following recent controversies over new TSA screening procedures for air travelers, President Fritz announced his administration would adopt the recommendations of SoIA Dr. Cynic to end the practice of full body scans of passengers. The President stated:

As President, I stand behind the Secretary's recommendations.

Security on board our airlines is important, and we must act to ensure that weaponry and explosive devices are not brought aboard our air crafts.  We live in a dangerous world.   Our security needs must also meet the criteria of common sense.  While I applaud the TSA for their diligence, I agree with the Secretary that this has been taken a bit too far, and needs to be scaled back.

Fritz

All the while, legislation was introduced in the Senate today to abolish the TSA. In the early morning hours the office of Senator Libertas (POP: At-Large) notified the AMPG that he would be introducing such legislation at earliest opportunity. Shortly afterwards the following bill was filed in the Senate's legislation que.

Freedom to Fly Act a.k.a. The TSA Sucks Act

1. The Transportation Security Administration is immediately abolished; airlines shall henceforth resume control over their own security operations.

2. No employee of the TSA at any level shall be considered immune to local, regional, and federal laws against child pornography, molestation, and sexual assault.

No comment has yet been issued from the Administration regarding this proposal. Senate sources are unsure whether the measure will be brought to the Senate floor for debate before the Thanksgiving holiday.

BREAKING NEWS: TSA Chief, Deputy, Director of Security All Resign in Protest

TSA Administrator "Incredibly Furious" at Sudden Policy Change & Absence of Communication

(APMG) The Atlasian Mustelid Post Gazette has learned that the TSA Administrator, Deputy Administrator and Assistant Administrator for Security Operations have all tendered their immediate resignations to the Office of Internal Affairs. According to letters submitted by the resigning administrators, their actions are in response to the Fritz Administration's abrupt termination of using full body scans and more therough frisking of airline passengers. The letters cited an absence  of consultation or communication with TSA officials before the Administration's recent change in policy.

A high level TSA employee familiar with the situation stated the TSA Administrator was "incredibly furious" when he learned of the change in his department's security procedures while watching the evening news at home.

Another source close to one of the resigned administrators described deep frustration at the sudden reversal of a policy described as "meticulously developed".

"The new body scan and frisk standards and technology were studied and developed for nearly a year before implementation. Then after all that review, training, and purchasing technology the policy is scraped at the drop of a hat without a single inquiry to the [TSA]."

Apparently the Fritz Administration's lack of consultation was as concerning to TSA leaders as the policy change. The Source continued:"Yes, the change in policy is bad and will only increase the risk to air passengers and crew. But just as frustrating was the IA Office and President never even gave us a chance to explain why it is such a dangerous policy change."

When asked for an opinion on public controversy over the recently instituted security procedures, the TSA official acknowledged concern, but also stood by the procedures as necessary. "No one at the agency wants to implement these procedures out of prurient interest. It was only instituted to avoid situations like the near tragedy of the underwear bomber. We instituted these policies because we had to in order to keep passengers lives safe."

Umar Abdul Mutallab is a Nigerian citizen who attempted to detonate plastic explosives hidden in his underwear while on board Northwest Airlines Flight 253, en route from Amsterdam to Detroit on Christmas last year. He was subdued by passengers and currently charged with six criminal counts, including attempted use of a weapon of mass destruction and attempted murder of 289 people.

Controversy erupted last week when TSA security procedures were implemented at airports including the use of technology allowing security officials to view full body scan of passengers and more intrusive body frisks. Many have complained against the new procedures calling them overly intrusive. Polls currently show the public split near evenly on support or opposition to the new procedures.

Pursuant to civil service guidelines, TSA leadership will fall on an acting basis to the senior Assistant Administrator, and Security Operations will be headed by the resigned Assistant Administrator's deputy, until when and if the SoIA should make permanent appointments to those positions.

When asked, SoIA Dr. Cynic declined statement on the matter until he could fully brief President Fritz on these developments.

Internal Affairs Office Sources say Secretary Dr. Cynic may support legislation abolishing TSA.

(APMG) Well-placed sources at the Ministry of Internal Affairs report SoIA Dr. Cynic may come out in support of recently introduced legislation to abolish the TSA.

Today Senator Libertas (POP: At-Large) introduced legislation to abolish the TSA. To the surprise of some Nyman analysts, The liberal Secretary may join the hardline controversial Populares Senator. The Secretary's reported support comes on the heels of a growing fracture between the TSA and IA Office leading to recent resignations of top TSA officials disgruntled at the sudden policy changes regarding airline security procedures, and the purported lack of communication from the Fritz Administration in reaching that decision.

Ministry officials close to the Secretary say his "He won't shed a tear if the TSA is banned, because the administration will then look to hire private security firms which we will compel them to follow along with our guidelines."

If true, Dr. Cynic would be the second prominent liberal to come out in support of the measure following the unexpected endorsement by Senator Snowguy (JCP: Midwest).

The Secretary could not confirm or deny his reported support of the TSA abolition bill. The Ministry support did not indicate whether President Fritz might share Secretary Dr. Cynic's support of the measure.

Economy Worsens:

The latest national economic numbers from the Office of the GM/Bureau of Labor and Economic Statistics.

UNEMPLOYMENT RATE: 8.8% (previous month: 8.5%)

ANNUAL GDP GROWTH RATE: 1.1% (previous month: 1.5%

CONSUMER PRICE INDEX (ANNUAL RATE): 1.1% (unchanged from last month)

ANSE INDEX: 831.19 (down 66.94 from last week).

The GM's Office notes this is the largest single month increase in unemployment in over 5 years.

The GM's Office further plans to report these individual economic figures individually on a weeklyish basis rather than altogether monthly.

TSA Resignations Rescinded

TSA Security Procedures to Continue For Now With Modifications

(AMPG) The President and SoIA's meeting with TSA administrators last week resulted in TSA airline security procedures being re-instituted with modifications, and the administrators rescinding their previously submitted resignations. The late night negotiations were held in a booth at the Original Hot Dog Shop on the University of Pittsburgh campus and lasted several hours. Afterwards statements were issued by both parties announcing a successful agreement had been reached.

By virtue of the agreement electronic full body scans of random airline and train passengers would continue, though full body frisks would be limited to those travellers who either choose such a procedure in lieu of a body scan or who display reasonable and articulable suspicion of criminal activity such as having suspicious items revealed by a body scan. The TSA will also immediately implement training and procedures to make such body frisks less invasive and to secure any short term record of body scans from public dissemination before being destroyed.

The TSA Administrator, Deputy Administrator, and Assistant Administrator for Security Operations all took part in the meeting after submitting their resignations a week ago in response to the Fritz Administration's indicating an abrupt suspension of the recently implemented TSA security procedures. Such procedures led to public concern over invasions of travellers privacy. The administrators indicated they are satisfied with the outcome and ready to return to work.

"We at the TSA understand the concern over privacy rights, and promise to immediately implement better training of our officers to avoid horror stories such have been reported recently, while still doing all we can to ensure the safety of passengers and crew on airlines and trains", the TSA Administrator stated.

A bill still is pending in the Senate to abolish the TSA and is expected to proceed to a vote on the Senate floor notwithstanding this agreement. President Fritz has promised to veto the bill if passed.

Majority of Public Support TSA Body Scans at Airports

Public Divided Over Body Frisks

A recent poll shows nearly two-thirds of those surveyed said they supported the Transportation Security Administration’s use of full-body X-ray scans. But support for the “aggressive” pat-downs was more tepid — just under half of those polled said they were “justified.”

The recent poll showed a 2-1 support for body scans, with 64% in support and 32% opposed. This level of support is down, however, from the 81% support of such scans recorded at the beginning of the month before their use was widely implemented and became a source of controversy.

When it comes to pat-downs for those who turn down the X-rays or fail them, Atlasians were divided. In the poll 48 percent said the procedures are “justified,” while 50 percent said the pat-downs “go too far.”

This poll was taken prior to the recent negotiations between the Fritz Administration and TSA administrators which resulted in implementation of additional training and restrictions on the use of body frisks.

Although the poll repeatedly included the typo of referring to "Americans" instead of "Atlasians", AMPG staff closely reviewed the results and poll methodology and found the numbers were nevertheless correctly calculated. Grin

As a sort of meta-question here related to the role of the GM and the powers of the President, with regard to the TSA affair and the rescinded resignations - was this simply the case that the President declared he successfully negotiated their rescision and you as GM went along with that (or felt you had to) - or was there a behind the scenes discussion between the President and yourself about how that might happen?

STOCK MARKET FALLS SHARPLY

(AMPG) After gradually dropping most of the previous two weeks, the ANSE Index declined heavily on Friday to 742.30. This is a drop of almost 90 points, or more than 10% of the Index's value, in just under two weeks. 37.23 points were lost on the Index on Friday alone before the closing bell ended what traders were calling "Black Friday". When pointed out that Black Friday already referred to the start of the 1929 Stock Market Crash, traders amended their description of the event to "a really sh$%ty day".

Comments from market leaders were unavailable, as the persons contacted by the AMPG were either crying to hard to understand, incomprehensibly drunk, or were reported by secretaries to have thrown themselves from their office windows.

BREAKING NEWS: STOCKS REBOUND DRAMATICALLY

MARKET FLUCTUATES WILDLY OVER THE COURSE OF WEEK.

(AMPG) The ANSE Index rose a staggering 97.20 points Tuesday, closing at 786.38 after days of sharp losses. The rise of approximately 13% is the third largest single day percentage gain in market history. The market returns to the same approximate strength from late last week, but still down nearly 10% from only two weeks ago.

Traders credit the recent heavy drops in stock prices as having resulted in badly undervalued stocks leading to what one broker called "a feeding frenzy" of buying activity on the trading floor.

Industry analysts, while initially puzzled at the lack of any reaction from the Fritz Administration or Senate at the market having the real life equivalent of a nearly 3000 point drop a loss of almost a quarter of the market's value in less than 3 weeks, now believe the government's lack of reaction to be justified by funeral ceremonies/celebrations over the recent death of Senator Libertas (POP: At-Large). An ANSE spokesperson expressed confidence, stating: "There's no reason for the government to impose new burdensome regulations here. These recent heavy fluctuations were merely the invisible hand of the market at work. I'm certain such heavy losses without following recovery gains will never, ever, ever happen again."
