Median Income Boost: Productivity Dividend

⚠ 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

Tight labour market, credential recognition, and education investment push median household income to $76K. Chain: median_income -> canada_child_benefit (-0.2, d1) — as incomes rise, means-tested CCB claws back. Students see the automatic stabilizer in reverse.

Ducklings Simulation

This proposal is active in the Ducklings causal simulation (Epoch 27). 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.
