Primary Care Revolution: $75B

⚠ This is a flightplan, not a commitment. Flightplans are hypothetical policy proposals modelled in the Ducklings causal simulation. They become projects only when voted into adoption through Consensus. Metrics shown reflect simulation model outputs, not real-world outcomes.

Overview

A $13B boost in primary care: team-based clinics, nurse practitioners, community health centres. Chain: primary_care_spending -> emergency_room_visits (-0.35, d2). The most direct healthcare chain: invest in prevention, and ER utilization drops. Students see why upstream investment beats downstream crisis management.

Ducklings Simulation

This proposal is active in the Ducklings causal simulation (Epoch 39). The simulation models downstream effects using a BFS cascade engine with strength-weighted, time-delayed edges capped at 3-hop depth and ±25% per-hop limits. Cascade outputs are bounded by variable saturation thresholds.
