Taxes:
Poor: 67%
Middle: 65%
Rich: 65%
Corporate Tax Rate: 45%
((This is the rate that corporation profits are taxed at))

Tariffs: 0%

Fund allocation:
Money is allocated for the expansion of the military.

Contingency 1: Debt
Should the treasury ever fall below £1000 in circumstances of a deficit, all strata's will have taxes increased in 5% increments until they reach 75% nominal tax rate. If this fails then the land stockpile shall be reduced to 30%. If this fails to reach a surplus, then the Military Spending shall be reduced to 60%. If this fails to reach a surplus, Education shall be reduced to 50%. If this fails to reach a surplus, then Administration shall be reduced to 30%. Should this fail, the Military Spending shall be reduced to 50%. If this fails to reach a surplus, Education will be further reduced to 30%. If this still fails to reach a surplus, taxes will be increased by increments of 5% until a surplus in achieved. Should this fail tariffs will be increased by 5% until a balance is achieved.

Contingency 2: War Outside or Inside the Nation ((the later is only applicable to large scale rebellions should they occur))
In the event the Kingdom of Italy be involved in a state of war, foreign or domestic, the Land Stockpile will be increased to 100%, in the event the war requires significant naval action the naval stockpile will also be increased to 100%. In order to compensate for budgetary deficits in this incident, taxes should be increased by 5% until a balance is achieved. If this fails Education and Administration will take 5% spending cuts until they are at 50% and 25% respectively or until a balance is achieved, this failing tariffs will be increased by 5% until a balance is achieved, failing this, administration, education and social spending will take 5% cuts until they reach 0% or a balance is achieved. If balance is not achieved, the navy will be immediately docked and funding slashed to bear minimum, this failing Military spending will take cuts of 5% until it reaches 0% or a balance is achieved, this failing military stockpile will take 5% cuts until it reaches 50%. If all previous contingencies fail, notify the cabinet immediately to see if the war is able to be terminated. On the conclusion of the state of War, civil or external, military spending and the stockpile, taxes and tariffs are to be reduced to the pre-war level and Contingency 1 applies as normal. Contingency 2 supersedes Contingency 1.

Contingency 3: Surplus in reference to surplus greater then 200 pounds per day
If a significant surplus is achieved tariffs will be reduced in increments of 2% until the tariff rate reaches 0%. If teh suprlus is still greater than 200 per day then taxes will be decreased on all strata's by increments of 1% until the nominal tax rates reach 40%. If the surplus is still greater then 200 per day and the government is constructing buildings, building ships or recruiting troops the construction spending will be increased until the surplus is less then 200 per day. After the building is done it will be reset back to 25%.

Contingency 4: Massive debt
If the government accrues debts which interest payments cost more then 20% of the daily budget then Social spending, education, administration will see 5% cuts until the debt is paid off. If the government is still running a deficit, or anyway unable to pay the debt taxes and tariffs will see 5% increases until the deficit ends.
Contingency 4 supersedes all other contingencies

Reform Plan

In Accordance with myself and the Duchess of Venice, we have created a plan that will guarantee quick reforms that the people want. The first two-three years ((next update)) shall be reserved to deal with those who are currently assembling for reform. The minimum wage shall be increased, and if the safety movement obtains enough people, that will be increased as well, along with all movements that obtain a reasonable number of people. After that, the reforms made under Balbo, including trinket unemployment benefits, common school education, and the freedom to assemble, shall also be put into effect ((Reforms done under Balbo)). Following the first half of the Transitory Period, the reform committee shall be taking in requests from the people in forms of petitions and letters, and shall determine the most desired reforms in order to give the people what they truly want during the second half of the Transitory Period.

-Federico Fabron-D'Ambrosio


((Here is how we want this to go down. We want TH3 to resolve the militias first to get a better understanding of the MIL. This plan is only for the first playthrough for Amat. I shall develop another one for the second playthrough. The order of reforms:

I. Minimum Wage increase by 1.
II. Trinket Unemployment Subsidies.
III. Freedom to Assemble. (I-III are Balbo reforms)
IV. Good School System
V. Any reform-movement (franchise movements do not count here) that has over 500,000 people, pass that reform))

((I've been considering the problem that we've essentially be having so many revolutions/anarchies that we've been passing the same reforms over and over again to lower mil/PP. I have a few added stipulations on reform and revolution:

1. If a pro-gov demagogue declares a revolution for the government, he cannot then use this revolution to revoke any reforms that his government (ever) passed. [Otherwise, this could at least in theory lead to a situation where a pro-gov demagogue gains power by passing a reform then immediately revokes it by revolution.] I reserve the right to extend this rule to all pro-government revolutions.

2. If a reform is passed three times, passing the reform more times does not give any reform benefits. Additionally, not having at least this level of reform will count as an extra agitator.[Note 1] The second clause only will not apply to voting system (FPtP/D'Hondt Method/PR) reforms.[Note 2]

3. Slavery remains outlawed after anarchy, even though all other reforms are revoked.

[Note 1]: IE - if you have Only Landed Voting and Weighted Wealth has been passed three times before, that's one agitator. If Wealth has also been passed three times before, that's two agitators. If you reform to Weighted Universal thereafter, that's zero agitators.

[Note 2]: There are no reforms that have been passed three times by my bookkeeping, though people have tried to pass certain reforms at least four times, they were stopped by CON 10 events or quickly forced from power thereafter. (I didn't count a reform as 'passed' if the reform was passed by a government that was forced from power later in same five-year period. If we started the game with it I counted it as passed once.) Below is a list and the number of times they've been passed. Some of these will reach the 3-pass threshold in the next update.

[Note 3]: This means neither the Montezemolo Caretaker Government 1884-1886, Di Antico Government 1886, or recent communist regime were counted as having passed valid reforms for my purposes.

Unlike many of his fellow communists, Claudio did not establish his own militia. Instead, he gave up on communism in Italy and fled to Albania to help the communist government there.

This poster was seen all over Italy, its message was clear, "Proletariat Unite! For Freedom! For Democracy! For Italy!"

((Federazione Italiana dei Lavatori will unionize the following factories:
Warchest = 185 PP
All factories in Campania = 185 PP - (5 PP * 8) = 145
PP
All factories in Lazio = 145 - (5 PP * 7) = 110 PP
All factories in Italian Sicily = 110 PP - (5 PP * 4) = 90 PP
All factories in Dalmatia = 90 PP - (5 PP * 3) = 75 PP
All factories in Algiers = 75 PP - (5 PP * 3) = 60 PP
All factories in Emilia= 60 PP - (5 PP * 6) = 35 PP
All factories in Lombardia = 35 - (5 PP * 6) = 5
PP

It is cheapest to expand unions into factories of the same type or in the same region.

Source: Unions, Apendix B: Player Organizations and Actions from ThunderHawk3, so I may or may not have more PP to spend))
