Rationale

Combination of community policing, mental health diversion courts, and poverty reduction programs. Chain: crime_rate -> public_safety_spending (+0.2, d2). Lower crime also ripples into property values, business investment, and insurance costs in the real world — the model captures the direct fiscal impact.

Details

Epoch: 27

Domain: social_policy

Fiscal cost estimate (LLM): $3.00B CAD

Structural estimate (RIPPLE): -$2.41B CAD net (v3-bfs-signed depth=2, decay=0.5/hop; agrees)

Top RIPPLE cost paths
  • −$2.50B → healthcare_spending (Healthcare Spending) via crime_rate
  • +$2.22B → consumer_spending (Consumer Spending Growth) via poverty_rate
  • −$1.13B → education_spending (Education Spending) via crime_rate
  • −$0.75B → public_safety_spending (Public Safety Spending) via crime_rate

Causal effects: 1 downstream variables affected (0 immediate)

Divergence after: 61.304

Variable changes

  • crime_rate: 5200 → 4500

Proposed policy move

crime_rate: 5,200 → 4,500 (▼ -700)

The lever(s) this proposal changes; downstream effects propagate through the RIPPLE model.
