Am I to assume the placeholder amount is to be dealt with via a later appropriation?

Love the concept but we need a placeholder for this unless we want this done during the budget process.

Speaking of, we should look into getting that going. Historically (pre-reset) budgets were presented in the Spring/Summer to give time for thorough debate before the end of the fiscal year (something we have struggled since on). Current statute actually stipulates end of April (23 days ago).

Does anyone have any thoughts as to how close we are to an administration budget or is that being deferred for later?

I believe Encke just introduced a budget in the House, though it seems to just be last year's budget with no changes to it

Thats not a bad idea, you can always amend it from there and that might get the ball rolling. Congress is suppose to have long debates on budgets (as I recall someone said about focusing on the issues recently. Tongue), and this might be a little of my 2015 era Whiggery coming back but Congress reclaiming some ground here and having actual and early debate on those would be healthy compared to last minute passage, which by definition cedes power to the executive at the expense of the Congress.

Of course knowing modern Atlasia, it might just languish untouched.

I alluded to this in a recent post on the FC board, but how would we feel about investing in a job retraining program for out-of-work coal miners and offering a lifetime UBI for miners who can't be retrained?  This should be a worthwhile strategy for a region that historically has been so dependent on coal.

I don’t support job retraining largely for political reasons IRL but may not mind as much in game. Strongly support a UBI though for those specific ex-workers.

Could you expound on this? I am dubious about them because they typically are an empty or impractical piece of political theater that gets peddled out with trade deals only for nothing to happen, workers to get screwed, schools to lose their tax base, and communities to decline etc.

Is your criticism of a similar variety or something different?

So is there any desire to move forward with worker retraining as a component of a development strategy? Amendments etc?

So from what I understand, two senators oppose UBI, two support it, and two oppose job retraining.

I am personally in favor of both but I think it makes more practical sense to make job retraining more available to younger workers.  I would assume it should be relatively inexpensive, because most young people are not pursuing jobs in coal mining.  In fact (and I don't have the numbers in front of me), I would assume that more young people are leaving the Appalachian region purely because job opportunities are scarce.

Still, we probably should make retraining available to tenured miners as well as more and more of those jobs are lost to automation.

Certainly though it does get complicated bc so many younger people move out of such areas

With regards to the UBI, while I think it is overkill I am not opposed to allowing miners to access early retirement.

Also I do favour giving young people opportunities through job retraining though it should not be mandatory

How would it be mandatory. Are you talking about conditioning some kind of aid or ubi to that?

Yeah I was imagining the retraining tied to the loans and grants and the UBI, which would be very bad indeed

I think the important thing here is to have the programs and resources available, and we can avoid ties or conditioning in that case.

Is there an amendment coming forward on these matters?

As of  ow there are no job retraining references on the bill so I do not think such an amendment would be necessary for now

On the matter of tying it as worried about yes, but in terms of including or expanding existing such retraining programs as just an available option, that would require amendment no?

Doesn't the Appalachian Regional Commission exist in Atlasia? I believe we passed a bill that appropriated development funds to that agency not too long ago.

I seem to recall this as well. Wasn't it late last year?

I realize money isn't a sexy topic for most but could we at least get a ballpark range to work with. I am not good at just pulling numbers out of my A@%, I need a set range to start with to be realistic. Tongue
