Can you tell how much money it would cost to help finance 6 wind farms in Arkansas and Texas with government providing 30% of funds.

GM, could I have a cost estimate for this bill, please?

Quote
You must be logged in to read this quote.

ESTIMATED COST (per year)Sad $7.448 billion


Mr. GM, would you provide some figures for me, please?  I'm working on a bridge repair bill and need an estimate for the following projects:

Longfellow Bridge, Boston - ESTIMATED COST: $0.217 billion
Brooklyn Bridge, New York City - ESTIMATED COST: $0.823 billion
Mianus Bridge, Greenwich, CT - ESTIMATED COST: $0.094 billion

Thank you. Smiley

These assume simple maintenance repairs and are not quotes for significant structural damage (if that is the case).

GM Griffin.

I'll need you to calculate the following:

Revenue:

Spamage Corporate Emission Tax: https://uselectionatlas.org/FORUM/index.php?topic=166883.0 - N/A; NO SPECIFIC REVENUE COMPONENT: " Corporations with 3,000 or more employees will be subject to a Carbon Emission Tax. The amount paid by individual corporations shall be determined based on studies of how much toxins they are releasing into the atmosphere."

Fuel Efficiency Standard Act:
https://uselectionatlas.org/FORUM/index.php?topic=169774.0 - ESTIMATED REVENUE: $0.168 billion (2014)

Expenditures:

Get your kids involved in school act:
https://uselectionatlas.org/FORUM/index.php?topic=170149.0 - N/A; EXPENDITURES FOR EDUCATION NEED TO BE KNOWN PRIOR (BUDGET)

Shop at Pacific Act: https://uselectionatlas.org/FORUM/index.php?topic=164879.0 - ESTIMATED COST: $62.585 billion

Can you tell how much money it would cost to help finance 6 wind farms in Arkansas and Texas with government providing 30% of funds.

I will need to know the number of windmills and/or the cumulative output of each farm in order to provide a cost estimate. I'll check the regional board to see if there's an existing bill/this is already outlined.

No, this is not outlined, I want to see if It would work.  Number of windmills on each farm would be 25.

I think we should get rid of the Shop at the Pacific Act. It is a crazy bomb waiting to explode, if we are having this then we should have a dead line!

The first set of images show plurality/majority party affiliation by region:





The second set of images compare an aggregate of voter registration, executive, legislative and judicial control to effectively determine which parties have the most power:






Finally, an image depicting the swing in each region – based on the Balance of Power maps above:

I've always wondered--why is the middle Supreme Court Justice's circle divided into 4 sections?

It was intended to be an identifier for Chief Justice.

GM Griffin, would you be able to provide me with union density/union membership numbers for Atlasia and the regions? I figured they'd be different than IRL thanks to more union-friendly legislation existing, and I'd like to know for something I'm typing up/proposing as legislation if I get elected.

Thanks.

IIRC the last time a GM crunched these numbers was before the mideast repealed right-to-work (back when I was in the assembly Wink. That should have a significant impact.

I assume it's the recall of every political officer, and the President declaring the Pacific in a state of anarachy.

Yes, those are Reasons 1 & 2. Also:

3) Massive influx of population

While discussions between Atlasia and Canada in regards to the Atlasian-Canadian Common Market are still ongoing, many Canadian officials have expressed concerns over the lack of details offered in terms of economic and social changes that can be expected. In order to provide some clarity to the situation, the Office of Game Moderator of Atlasia has released its tentative findings for what can be expected in the months and years following any such economic cooperation.

  • An elimination of border control functions related to customs enforcement and immigration would reduce costs associated with enforcement by roughly $15 billion annually between the two countries – roughly equivalent to 3% of the value of annual trade between Atlasia and Canada.
.
  • Immigration policies between Atlasia and Canada, as such, would likely experience a convergence as both countries seek to normalize free movement between one another. With minimal resources allocated to enforce differing immigration protocols, a consensus would ultimately be reached.
.
  • With most trade and customs barriers removed, the long-term effects on unionization rates remain unclear. Currently, Atlasia’s unionization rate stands at approximately 15%; Canada’s hovers around 30%. The A-CCM would create conditions that could foster an increased unionization of Atlasia – coupled with the Labor Rights Act – but could also result in non-unionized Atlasian manufacturers having the upper-hand against Canadian manufacturers, more of which are unionized.
.
  • Agricultural subsidies would be gradually phased out as a result of the A-CCM, leading to a fair playing field between both countries. It is estimated that more than $30 billion will be saved annually between the two countries once this part of the A-CCM is achieved.
.
  • Over the first decade, the A-CCM is estimated to increase the exportation of Atlasian goods to Canada by 7.5-9.1% when compared to baseline projections, and the exportation of Canadian goods to Atlasia by 5.8-7.3% by the same measurement. This would result in roughly $32-37 billion in additional trade between the two countries by 2023.
.
  • The effects of emigration and population generally would favor the Atlasia, with an expected 1.2 million Atlasians permanently relocating to Canada for residency and work-related endeavors over the next decade. As it pertains to Canadian residents permanently relocating to Atlasia over the same timeframe, the number is estimated to be 700,000 - nominally smaller but a more substantial figure in terms of percentage of the country’s population.

It is the opinion of the Office of Game Moderator that if such legislation were passed by the Atlasian Senate and signed by the President within the next two weeks, the Canadian Government will likewise act swiftly upon the matter and a resolution will be reached by the beginning of July. Upon ratification of the A-CCM by Canada, major elements such as current residency restrictions between the two countries would be lifted. While both countries will have an array of details through which to sort in the coming days, weeks and months, action on behalf of the Atlasian Senate in regards to these details is not paramount and will certainly be addressed by the various departments and agencies of each country.
