- OFFICE OF THE COMPTROLLER GENERAL -
STATEMENT REGARDING APPOINTMENT AND CORONAVIRUS

I would like to thank President Pericles for nominating me as Atlasia's first Comptroller General and the Senate for approving my nomination. I can now begin work in what is a very difficult time for Atlasia both socially and economically. The situation with the Coronavirus pandemic has taken thousands of lives and infected over 300,000 in Atlasia alone.

The effect of the pandemic economically has been significant, with our stock markets seeing the biggest falls since the 2008 financial crash; both the Dow Jones and Nasdaq have seen their biggest single day drops in history during this crisis. We may be facing a situation where our economic may retract by a third by the middle of the year.

Unemployment has already started to increase and is likely to continue to do so throughout this crisis. We will be realising our unemployment figures for March in the coming days, but we fear that the unemployment could double by the end of this crisis when compared to before. Some of the most pessimistic predictions see unemployment exceed 32% in the coming months.

The Federal Reserve has reduced the reserve rate to 0.25%, after previously being reduced from 1.75% to 1.25% at the start of March. This is an attempt to stimulate the economy during these difficult times, making it easier for businesses and individuals to access credit. It's also hoped that this will reduce the number of redundancies in the coming months.

The situation with the Coronavirus is such that it's likely that our economy is likely to slide into recession, along with many other countries. There are predictions that the economy of many developed countries could face worse financial conditions than in 2008. However, it's uncertain how long it will be after Coronavirus has been contained that the economy will start to return to health.

The recommendation to the Government and Congress is to take action to safeguard key industries and to prepare an unemployment welfare system that can handle the number of new applicants and provide adequate financial support to ensure the financial crisis is contained as much as possible.

Thank you. I thought some consistency in the headings would be good across the main offices. Wink

Didn't know where else to ask, but does anybody know if Clyde is alright? Wanted to coordinate with him for the Game Engine some time ago and realized he hadn't been online for a while now (hoping he told someone he'd be away for some time or something like that)

Would be interested in an estimate of how many tax dollars would be wasted if the South changes it’s capitol from Nashville. It’s too bad the CoD doesn’t care about fiscal responsibility and didn’t request this before passing the amendment.

There was a similar bill a year ago that I provided a very rough cost estimate for; using the New Capitol building in Tallahassee as a guide, I estimated that the cost to construct the new building alone would be at least 175 million dollars. Of course there is a lot of grey area about additional costs of moving other government buildings, because it's not clear what buildings actually exist in the game (when the region creates a new department, is a new building constructed?).

Sorry to bump this, but the Comptroller General's been AWOL for two months now.

I have no legal power to temporarily fulfill Clyde's legal and necessary duties (nor the time or economic knowledge to do so anyway), and it's very important that the Game Engine continues to function. Since I didn't have much time last month, it would have been ideal to have the office filled so there would be at least one active GM officer at all times.
