Intending on a regional update this week. Also, get ready for another fun-filled GTO week, in which Atlasia shirks its responsibility to lead the global discussion on important issues.

The GM might want to pay attention - because no one else is - to whatever it is the DoI does these days.

Send somebody to Room 101 in the Ministry of Truth. That'll definitely get the media's attention, and the President may give you some attention.

Regional News

Biweekly Regional Report

Southeast
As stated previously, a study of the region's prisons finds that 90% of non-free-range prisons are at or above capacity, with the remaining 10% nearly there. The packed prisons comes at a cost to both the taxpayers and the prisons, burdening the system with growing costs and making it difficult for prisons to account for all prison activities. The region should look into expanding capacity and staffing, lightening restrictions on free-range prisons or reducing penalties for some non-violent crimes.

Experts estimate that the Southeast region will be hit the hardest by rising gas prices as the summer months loom ahead. The Office of the GM recommends movement on the creation of domestic sources of alternative and renewable energy sources to help alleviate the growing pressure on Southeastern families.

Could you explain what free ranger prisons are?

Another thing I would like to know what crimes could be reduced in penalty.

Finally moves to build alternative energy and renewables wouldn't have an effect for years, and would not have an impact on prices this summer. In fact the region already made investments in this years ago, and appearently barring a repeal I don't know about, they have not succeeded.

A farmer turned over in his tractor and survived to tell the tale. More on this astonishing death-defying tale after the break.

Expenditures = $5. Revenues = $7. Congratulations, you have $2 left to spend. Tongue

I will work on the remaining regions over the next week.

Ideas welcome for editing the bill

GI JANE
Growth. In. Jobs. And. New. Economy.
WHEREAS: Unemployment is at 12.1% in the Mideast with over 7 million citizen unemployed and
WHEREAS: Most citizens are employed in small businesses and consumer confidence is down
BE IT RESOLVED:
SECTION 1:
1.   Any business that creates 1 new job in the current fiscal year will be given a $5,000 corporate tax credit.
2.   There shall be no waiting period for a business or company to start after government forms are approved.
3.   Drop the corporate tax rate to 10%, the lowest internationally. The loss of corporate tax revenue gained by the Mideast will be made up with the creation of new jobs and decrease of unemployment benefits.
4.   Cut capital gains tax by 20% for incomes over $500,000 and 40% for incomes under $500,000.
5.   Welfare program requires 40 hours a week of, or a combination of education to receive a GED, job training, work or community service for those that are deemed “fit to work” by the Mideast Government. Every welfare recipient deemed “able to work” must find work within two years of being enrolled in a Mideast welfare program or four years if the recipient is attending education at any level.
6.   Cut income tax to 6% for those making less than $12,000 a year. Cut the income tax to 11% for those making between $12,000-$35,000 a year. Cut the income tax to 17% for those making between $35,000-$80,000. Cut the income tax to 22% for those making between $80,000-$150,000.
SECTION 2:
7.   Departments and committees of government in the Mideast will eliminate overlapping responsibilities, tasks and programs to save tax-payer funding and to guarantee no business has to file or complete the same form or paperwork more than once. Each department and committee will send one representative to a weekly meeting in which they will decide who will have what specific responsibility that they alone will posses. The “Government Employment Committee” headed by an appointee by the Governor, confirmed by the Assembly will lead these meetings.
8.   A one year hiring freeze will take effect. The Mideast cannot total more workers in the government then that of the passage of this bill. If an employee is fired, a different position is allowed to be created instead of replacing that former employee.
9.   Eliminate all subsides to farms that do not grow crops.
10.   The Mideast government must buy products and materials to complete projects that are the cheapest on the market when the material is non-essential to safety and not needed for efficiency (examples: toilet, paper clips, hammers)
11.   Projects of the Mideast government carried out by private companies must be chosen based on the cheapest, most efficient budget requested.
12.   Halt Mideast government purchase of land for one year.
13.   Eliminate corporate subsidies for corporations that cannot provide a business plan or execute a plan that will bring in a profit within 2 years or a profit enough to pay off the subsidies in 5 years giving the corporation the option time for research, development, innovation and improvement or let a different, profitable, efficient company replace the failing corporation.
14.   All Mideast funds to sanctuary cities, that knowingly hold and protect illegal peoples, shall be kept by the Mideast government or returned to the people of the Mideast.
15.   Eliminate any Mideast government job deemed unnecessary by “Government Employment Committee”.

Can the Mideast get an analysis on this impact?
Thanks

     Probably should make 1.1 say "at least 1 new job", since otherwise it might be interpreted as them needing to create exactly one new job in order to receive the tax credit.

I don't report on game politics, as that is something you can witness and receive ample commentary on from one of the fine publications out there.

Sorry all, it's finals period so I may not be responding to some things in as timely a way as I should be (I know you're staring Hash). I will definitely get to it.

Just a note: I've been in transition a lot lately, but as of tomorrow night I will be back in the full swing of things. Probably a financial report and a regional report tomorrow.

The Atlasia Dispatch-Herald has been bought by Minitrue Media, a subsidiary of the IngSoc Group. It is understood that the paper will be closed and the staff re-deployed to various other IngSoc publications.

...which is a subtle hint to the Moderators here to remove the ADH threads from their current sticky status Smiley
