	Eddington's policy reforms became the benchmark for the welfare state that still remains in place to this day and his response to international crisis' such as the 3015 Economic Recession, the 3017 Corporate Depression and the 3018 August and October Conflicts are still considered some of the best to this day. However, despite maintaining Wiltshire throughout the crisis', Wiltshire's debt did grow substantially and bureaucracy expanded. By 3019, Wiltshire's position in the region had been diminished. In addition, while poverty was limited and shrank during 3016 and 3017, by 3019 the rate of poverty was on the rise again and many Wiltshirians feared that the "progressive" socialist government was becoming too bloated.
