Perhaps before fixing the obvious typo, we maybe can get us some GM and SoIA action to find out the exact number needed, rather then just throwing a big number around. That way we put that in at the same time we fix the typo and save some time (that initial $5 billion won't last forever you know).

Since the GM has chosen to treat RL's Hurrican Sandy in Atlasia as well, RL estimates of damage feel appropriate. Here's the post GM shua made in his Community Portal:

You can request however much you believe is warranted based on RL conditions, and what you want to prioritize in terms of recovery. In terms of the total damage, there is no agreed upon dollar amount at this point, though the most recent estimates come around $50 billion (probably  95% of which is in the NE) in terms of both public and private property, insured and uninsured.

Ben, how would feel about $60 to $70 in case there is an underestimation of the damages in those assumptions, with of course, a clawback provision for any unused funds?

Edit: Rather than  create seperate standards, I would rather expand on the ones in the previous bill. That will take some time, which I don't have tonight. This is what I get for trying to rush it. Tongue

Noted. I have to make some alterations to 14 tomorrow, though. So you may need to judge it again.

also, note that the $50 billion includes a lot more than infrastructure.
