We currently have $30 to spend. Science is asking for $5. Which leaves $25 for other departments.
How much will our military need? I'd like to formalize our alliance with the CSTO nation first, which would cost $12 dollars. Or maybe we focus on Finland and Iran, costing only $8. That leaves the military with $13/17, if they need that.
Sound good?

Sounds good to me, though if the military doesn't need it right away I could certainly use another 5mil for research.

I personally would like to see our spies do something in the interim.
And don't forget to put us at DEFCON 4, since there is literally no reason not to.

I'll take the first order for CSTO Nations and assume 10 is being put to science as I don't think I've seen military orders go past from Russia

Well, I wanted that $5 saved for army units butttt....
So we spent:
$10: Science
$12: Diplomatic
$8: Military
Less than I would of wanted.
Next turn shall be:
Science: $5
Diplomatic: $8
Military: $17
I kinda Want to build up more units to fuel our offensive.

If China comes through on their Research Agreement we can drop science down to 3$ (and we'll get Conscription, which presumably does something good in terms of military units).

Since we have inside information that USA is preparing for some kind of assault, we should attempt to sabotage their efforts.

I've got the planned research agreement with China, so we can either-
-Drop research budget to 3$mil for next turn
-Bump it to 8$ and get something in addition to Conscription
Alternately if I end up getting a research agreement with Egypt for the vaccine we can get two techs for $6, but that's looking unlikely as they haven't responded yet.

Okay I've got a tentative agreement with Egypt, so for 6mil we can get two technologies today.

What happens if the President does not give financial orders for the turn? Does it just use the default numbers on the control panel?
Right now I think we might actually be better off, diplomatically, if Pluto were to zero the military budget. But I'm not touching it myself, and even if I thought I could I'm not sure I'm willing to be quite that deceptive.

I updated the control panel, I think, but I'd like to confirm here that I'm making sure Science has $9 for research.
