[Sadeh] Army & Taxes | ×¦×‘× & מיסי×

13 Day 1,116, 12:34 Israel
So adding me 2 cents into the pool of ideas.


~Army~


*my new avatar*

First and most important thing need to be understood is, fully functioning army of 20 is way better than unfunctioning army of 100.
Even tho influence(not the battle's one, the global-official one) of a country do messures at numbers, it does not mean 100 people can actually do better than 100 because unless all these 100's potential is used it is a waste of time and a big headache.

What we should do?
Probably restart the army, again, but change the ideas and basics of the army.

Facts:
1) We don't need a big army.(in the condition we are at atm)
2) A soldier is counted a soldier ONLY if he is deployable, otherwise he is not more than a national guard in the best case.
3) Soldiers must have supplies.
4) Army must have budget.
5) Army must have full organization, communication, obedience, knowledge is needed.
6) Army must have Strong leaders.
7) If army's actions are not noticeable both in PR and in field it is useless.

I don't think making it again will damage us anyhow because right now we have nothing.
What we should do really, is extract only the active and deployable soldiers from the army before we rebuild it, so they won't be punished or feel like quiting the army for good.(mass pm will be involved)
And before we do all that, we need to think how we want to see our army, what we want it to be, and how to actually do it, including getting the needed budget.

All that, will be way more smart than creating a third MPP since protection- it won't give us.

~Taxes~
Israel is a small country, means we have small workforce, means no matter what we will always have a sort of weak economy.
How are taxes should look like?
Being cheaper is the key for a better economy. Why?
It means more products can be consumed overall, means people's wealth can be better, means people from outside may come to purchase things, means we can export for convinient prices, and even more.

If we want cheaper prices what would be the key for it?
Low taxes for IMPORT and VAT:
Import-> Prices of RM will have more competition hence lower prices which allow cheaper products.
VAT-> Keeping low VAT means cheaper products again because final price is lower.

-Import should stand between 1%-9%.
The reason is because if we put the import any higher prices will be higher as well, and local companies as always take advantage of it.
If we have more RM on market local companies will actually have to compete against outsiders.
Going toward the 5% we will have a BIT of protection on local companies, allowing them to compete outsiders a bit and enoucrage local making/purchasing of companies eventually to develop the economy.

-Vat should stand between 1%-9%
The gov need to make some money after all, for variety of reasons, so some taxes will go to gov after all.
Having it low means anyone who sell here anything will sell it relatively cheap, so that will give people the will to sell here.


It seems like many people afraid from low import prices, I say without any good reason.
Think about it: Do you really see in the near future tons of companies from abroad exporting here thier goods completley killing the local market? HELL NO why would they!!!
-First of all exporting here isn't so great if you ask me, people simply do not have the money to buy all the products tons of companies will be able to offer.
-Second, when someone buys export to any country, he is not making a charity donation, he WANTS TO EARN MONEY, means if food cost here 1.5 he won't sell it for 1.
-Third, Even if someone did sell something that cost here 1.5 for 1 in our market, WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH THIS PLACE? our local prices CAN'T BE THAT UNREASONABLE compated to the world's prices.

I could keep giving you tons of examples of why low taxes aren't so bad as you would think, but thats the main reasons.

Keep in mind gov do need some taxes, so keeping everything one 1 will be stupid, but having like 5% will be good, income can be even 15%.

Facts:
Workers who get 8.5 NIS can afford 7 food that cost like 1.2 NIS.
Workers who get 10 NIS cannot afford 7 food that cost 1.5 NIS.

Thats is, please share with me your opinion and ideas, vote and sub

Because I translate his articles:)
Anyway, I'll translate it first thing in the morning:)

And about the subject-I don't agree with you about the line:
"Israel is a small country, means we have small workforce, means no matter what we will always have a sort of weak economy."

You may see the real Israel's economy-it is one of the most stable economies in the world (our capital market-the stock market, the bound market ect...) and I dont see any reason why it cant be same in EIsrael.

If we once-just once (!), may act only by financial considerations and not by stupied power N position fights, we can develope here a great economy.

The problem is, Sadeh, that imports take money OUT of the local economy. If a foreign company is selling food for 1.10 NIS (10% for VAT and Import taxes), eIsrael's government earns 0.10 NIS. However, 1 NIS is now owned by a foreign company, leaving eIsrael with a net profit of -0.90 NIS. Losing money, especially in a small economy, is generally a bad idea.

Timeless - The problem with your "problem" is you are only using half the equation. We now have benefits in making food that other countries do not have. If we use that smartly we can export food to those countries and "bring in" funds to our country. You can't just use one half of the import-export dynamic, it goes both ways.

You can't restart the army every month.
Talk to me or to John Jay so you can continue our work which wasn't so bad.
The army need consistency , not constant renweal.

same john jay who left israel without letting anyone know and without any order? no thank you, I don't care about him anymore.

And what can I say, when you build crappy thing it is best to just restart it until you do it well.

@Timless, well just like joshua said you can't take one side and even a one scenario on reflect it on the entire economy... that would be wrong.

As I said, no one will sell food for 1.1 NIS when the rest is 1.5 NIS, that will be stupid really and unprofitable to cover the 20 gold he just spent.
If he does manage to sell huge stocks of food for 1.1 it means companies managers act wrong! high wages,high grain,too much daily profit, so they should fix it

how about HELPING the citizens?
I started this game like a week ago, and for 5 days i didn't have money to even bring my health back to 100....
Seriously? why don't we have a program like in the eUS where newbies get some food from the government...

Same thing with the army.... if the gov would give them some food, they could tank up more and influence the war in a better way....

And i agree with Sadeh, if u have 20 ppl that are deployable and can fight alot and then you increase their ability to fight by giving them some food... we could be much stronger...
