With the Red-Green Revolution fresh in the minds of the Auclair Administration, the state has been slowly, but steadily, preparing an ambitious plan to revive the Red-Green Revolution, and actually make it achievable within a realistic timeframe. This week, PAX passed the National Grid Audit Act, as the first step for enacting the Red-Green Revolution will be to look at what progress already exists. After all, the Red-Green Revolution was enacted a century ago, and so Xsampa isn't starting from scratch. There already exists a small, but very noteworthy green energy sector, however it can be expanded and to do so, an audit of the energy grid is going to be necessary.

As such, engineers from across the country will be given an ambitious task. A full review and audit of the entire national energy grid. The goal is to identify transmission bottlenecks, unstable substations, rural grid weaknesses, urban load spikes, and renewable curtailment risks. A major (and very expensive) expansion of green energy cannot be allowed if risks occur. So the audit will occur, and is expected to most certainly last, at the very least two years, but expectations are being held for three years. Slow and steady, but something Xsampans are no strangers to. 

Once this is concluded, the next step of the Renewed Red-Green Revolution will occur, as Phase 1 is expected to last, with a very generous estimate, up to 5735 and that's being generous. Of course however, several issues have already emerged. As ambitious as the Red-Green Revolution is, it is incredibly expensive and while Xsampa isn't limited by capitalist monetary mechanisms, the XIP is hesitant to blow a lot of People's Tangka's on an ambitious project that won't produce foreseeable results. And even then, it still will be incredibly expensive, and time consuming. And of course, Xsampa will need to aquire Rare Earth Metals/Minerals, which are equally expensive in the global market. Like any ambitious plan, it comes with great risks and great rewards. The risks? If it's too slow, history can repeat and the Red-Green Revolution dies once again, or alternatively, it simply becomes too expensive and we find ourselves with another Tsokling System Deficit. However if it succeeds, we have full energy sovereignty, cleaner air, high paying domestic jobs, and cheaper energy.

Bookstores see boom; Xsampans like books.

Can fiscal conservatism exist in a socialist society? Not in a western sense.

How can worker councils and workplace democracy be expanded? PAX looks to debate.
