President Talmadge kicked up his feet as it was a busy day in the Presidential office. Finnagling business details with major enterprises is not a fun game to play, especially if they hold leverage against you, especially against its army of lawyers. Nevertheless the power of the state is nothing to scoff at, all that is left for today is the daily budget report and all is fi...

Fullbright: Mr. President, our cash reserves are critically low...

Talmadge: What? How?

Fullbright: Our industrialization drive is costing us an immense amount of state funding. Since secession, hard currency has been hard to comeby.

Talmadge: What about the State Reserve?

Fullbright: Dangerously low in reserves.

Talmadge: Sigh... let me guess, we are gonna have to print more money?

Fullbright: Im afraid so sir. But there is a solution.

Talmadge: Which is?

Fullbright: We may be running out of US dollars but we can just establish a new Georgian dollar pegged with the price of Gold bullion. Our gold reserves remain strong as mining operations in Arkansas and in the South give fruit as well as remnant state reserves before the flood. We may have to undergo a small increase in inflation but pegging ourselves to the Gold Standard may help us stabilize our new Fiat currency and keep its value consistent.

Talmadge: Allright, contact the Secretary of Commerce and the Treasury. I want this done within the hour.

Fullbright: Understood.
