No objection whatsoever, and it wisely doesn't try to budget every action.

One action that might be nice (although it would have the immediate benefit that an extra hunt troublemakers might) would be building a Stable annex.
I'm actually more worried about having just gutted our culture and mysticism scores, and how that they'll both need to be refilled before we can start overflowing into tech again.
The connections agenda doesn't really do anything to address that issue, and i'd like to confirm whether our passive income is sufficient.

It's fine. Everything's fine. The roof is not on fire. SWAT teams have not been deployed, military strike teams have not been scrambled, and we do not intend to press the Big Red Button anytime soon. You are completely safe. Please remain in your seats.
...
At this rate, we're going to spend the last third of the quest coming up with increasingly convoluted plans to try and avoid actually paying for anything, because "Subsidize Lint Inspectors" is going to cost twice our Wealth cap.
Stats are decent.
We have full Econ, almost-full Wealth, Full Diplo, and Full Tech. Culture and Mysticism will both be under half-full.
Our income (assuming 4 more cities) will be something like +5E, +5W, +4D, +10C, +3M, -4(+1)T.
So we are looking pretty good on resources, at least until you start looking at our spending. That will include AT LEAST the following:
Dam x3: -6E, -6(+3) T
Library: -3C, -3(+3) M
PG: -3C, -1E
Warships: -3E, -8W
So, before we get to faction actions, we are down 6C, 10E, 8W, and 3T (and that is if we account for refunds). And now we get 5 Mains and something like 6 secondaries worth of actions. Here is hoping we have some stats left at the end...

@PrimalShadow, yep I value 1 Cent more than a secondary right this second at least for some of my ideas(its late I can't recall if I ever went main PSN) since with four cities up we will be at 7 cities and that is prime Nurglite territory and the number we had up when we spawned the Horseman. I'd rather not tempt it to come back so I'll try to hang onto that Cent.
Well. It appears that your thoughts on this issue are divergent to my own, to a degree that very much surprises me. I won't try to convince you, since the vote is done and I need to go to sleep anyways, but, uh, if I were you I would reconsider that opinion.

Shunmyn Dragonson, son of the Dragon King, sat in the shade of a tree, reading tales of strange lands compiled by various traders. Such strange and wondrous places they told of, and while many of the stories were badly written in his opinion, there was poetry in some of them. He respun some of the wording in his mind and even traced a few lines upon his palm in consideration. He would compose better ways of saying some of these things next time he had parchment available. Father objected if he dragged around scribes to write out his poetry for him, even though that made things so much easier. Then again, he supposed that reading and writing were related, and reading at least was the big reason why father wanted him to do it himself. Mother couldn't read because she was of barbarian stock, and thus couldn't really appreciate the clever wit on the pages, but then again she had taught him to ride and use the bow alongside father's lessons on the sword and spear.
There was poetry in such things, and while it often frustrated him when his father tried to get into numbers - dreadful things - he had to admit that his father was a poet of war as well. The tales of his campaigns were amazing and enthralling, and the way he explained how he did things were fantastical even in their mundanity. Father was writing down his adventures and insights, and Shunmyn was helping and writing his own commentary. He was writing a lot actually. His poems and improvements on the writing of others; his commentaries on his father's military campaigns and strategies; and his book on fighting. That last one was the most fun for him but the trickiest to actually do, because he needed to find artists who could get the pictures he needed just right. All of his teachers - including father! - agreed that he was an absolute prodigy and while he still needed a few more years to finish growing, he certainly had many excellent ideas. His "combat poetics" seemed interesting to more than a few veterans who were able to understand what he was trying to explain sometimes.
He hoped to one day write his poetry on the grandest scale like father had, only in more exotic locales fitting of such epic deeds. He had heard many arguments coming from the palace that made him pretty sure he would get his chance. Arguments about how they should have sent help to the Freehills, or the Harmurri sooner, or invested in the navy before all the pirates came flooding out of the strait. Shunmyn didn't have all the facts, although father did share many of them with him, but it sounded like the Freehills had been pushed around and could no longer control the strait in the south-west properly, and now pirates from the Saffron Islands were coming in to take advantage of the disruption, while in the south no one was quite sure who was in charge of the Harmurri at this point, as there were a couple of different groups who had a decent claim and they hadn't quite sorted out who got what yet. There was of course the yelling about laws and land distribution and the like, but Shunmyn honestly had no time for all that. He could tolerate the boring bits of war if he could do what his father had done, but the rest? Bah, that was what advisors and attendants were for. Fortunately father had taken many of the lessons about good leadership and lieutenants on the battlefield and spread it far and wide.
If you wanted to be the best, you needed to have the best attendants, who needed to be assisted by the best themselves. It was just common sense really.

Pros: Increase Martial gain from raising elite units; bonus Culture, Tech and/or Mysticism for certain actions; effect of criticals and doubles greatly increased; ruling faction gains an additional faction power
Cons: Increased potential Martial loss in fighting, increased social stratification, increased costs, dominant faction can no longer be suppressed, -3 Culture/ turn (need more academies)

Block Housing [Urban] - Multilevel housing that allows for many, many people to be stuffed into a small area.

Reminder: 2 {S} applied to the same project = 1 {M}
Additionally: 2 Mains may have non-linear effects
Mega-Projects - Mega-Projects can require many generations to complete, take an unknown amount of time to do so, and drain Econ while active, but can produce massive benefits once complete. Once chosen, the occupy the Main Focus slot until either completed or stopped early. Early stopping once started does not refund any of the investments and increases social strife. To reduce confusion, mega-projects are not listed as part of the voting project list and must be "written-in".
Boundary Passage [Yeomen] - The Boundary Hills are rough terrain with few wells or springs, making them almost impossible to pass, but if one were to cut through the rock to install tunnels and staircases, and build some bridges, this would provide an easy but easily controllable and defensible route between the steppes and lowlands (5-8? action commitment, -2 Econ per action)
Classical Law – As your society becomes more complex, perhaps it is time to look back over the old laws and clean them up a bit? (5-8? Action commitment, -4 Mysticism & Culture per action)
Great Dam - The river can run wild and dangerous when the rains come strong, but could it not be controlled by the same principles by which the water on the hills is channelled and contained, merely on a larger scale? (5/6-8? action commitment, -2 Econ & -2 Tech per action)
Great Library [Priests] - The libraries thus far are fine, but with many of them and one on a port location, the possibility of an even larger library where everything might be stored presents itself (2/5-7? action commitment, -3 Mysticism and Culture per action, 2/2 Econ commitment)
Triangle Canal [Yeomen] - There is land in the north where the soil is mostly clay and can be cut efficiently, allowing for a great canal to be cut between the two forks of the Black River, from which smaller irrigation canals can be built to water the land of the Stallions, massively increasing the available well watered land (8-11? action commitment, -3 Econ and -1 Tech per action)
[Stewards] special kicker: Pay 1 Stability to double the effort on a megaproject action, consuming twice the required per turn resources but advancing the job faster. If taking a second main action on a megaproject, requires additional Stability payment to double that as well.

Welp
Bad News Bolded:
Life of Arete -> Divinely Glorious Elites (Maxed Development)
A well lead life is one of excellence in all things at all levels, from the stitch of cloth to prowess on the battlefield to skill in oration. The best and finest is thus demanded of and by all to show their virtue and honour, in the knowledge that those that rise to the top will be supported by excellence below.
Pros: Increase Martial gain from raising elite units; bonus Culture, Tech and/or Mysticism for certain actions; effect of criticals and doubles greatly increased; ruling faction gains an additional faction power
Cons: Increased potential Martial loss in fighting, increased social stratification, increased costs, dominant faction can no longer be suppressed, -3 Culture/ turn (need more academies)
Good news:
Shunmyn Dragonson: (Heroic Cultured, Genius Martial, Logistical Admin (Poor Regular), Inspiring Diplomacy (Poor Regular), Poor Mystic)
This dude is basically built for War
