one business owner to american leaders: Raise import taxes
ComputerSpeaker
I know I have to buy more raw materials than I produce but I would prefer to buy from Americans or have the foreigners have to pay a significant amount to sell in our markets!
Please as an American business owner I am asking you to raise the import taxes!
with no resource bonuses! and no way to hire workers! i cannot compete, i will be run out of this market the American market. my home market, because import taxes are too low!
the foreigners can produce twice as much as me per factory! they get twice as much profits selling in the same market as i do! please raise the import taxes so that me and them make the same profit.
need 50% import taxes to make that happen, they produce twice as much so they need to pay half the value in taxes!

Sorry mistyped... no one is importing to america cause of the cost of an import liscene the ROI isn`t worth it. the whole issue was made by the wigs(admin). we cant fix it. it wont fix. At one point there was a buying bot that had everything priced at about 10x the current price. the bot stopped one day everything crashed, along with the bot economy. the RM companies bought stayed around.. Its only a matter of time until when your buying your RM you can only make it if the person you bought it from donates money back to you. Storage is the solution you say, not at all the amount produced daily isn`t containable. on top of that with this war.. there is a lot of moving. moving was priced by the wigs. it costs more than the highest wage... and thats moving 1 region. so its pointless to fight cause moving is such a major cost. so the amount of people actually buying goods is dropping rapidly. These major issues you keep pointing out are the game not the gov. as welll the current system majorly favors the invader and being invaded by more than one country pretty much spells deaths for the country EX. Italy, canada, Germany, india now even crotia homeland, mexico, austrillia, Russia. I think you get the idea.
you and i see things differently, your a slave, i am a business owner, you want low import taxes, i want high import taxes. you rely on wages, i rely on my assets.
As a business owner i want high import taxes, so it will be easier for me to control the market.
i make enough to cover my needs plus enough to travel to 3 different places on the map on a given day.
and you get enough, do not be selfish, hardworker medal, 5 gold a month, 30 usd a day, enough to change locations in the same area once a day, and you got the super solider medal, free trainign facility, 5 str a day, ss every 50 days 5 gold every two months. that would be changing locations every other day. and if you got the 20 gold require to upgrade it once, then you could travel to two locations daily. 20 gold to be able to travel in the country twice a day to any territtory you wanted. but no, you are not able to see that, then working, i currently getting 18 cc a day from working. 3 dollars for food and 16 dollars for 2 q7 weps, and if your a new player a person starts with their own wep and food factory, so they might not even need ot buy food nor weps. you have been given so much and yet you want more. be happy with what you have until you understand!
i am a business owner, i want raised import taxes, if you do not want to help me get what i want i can join some other country!
Or instead of complaining you could become an american leader and get into congress or become country president and change things 🙂
But here is what I dont get. You want to control the market and screw the population to maximize your profits, yet you tell everyone else they should be happy with the what they get and not to be selfish? Yet if your plans come into effect their ability to buy becomes diminished. Seems odd to me. US has been a low tax economy for as long as I can remember and has always done well.
It isnt that the market sucks, it is that people have left the game in droves, the shopping bot is gone and as a result you dont make as much e-money as you can. Instead of complaining to the government look at it as a challenge and see if you can figure out how to make your millions. It is what I am doinga nd while not making LOTS of cash, I am not doing too badly consideering I am working in a slave pit for minimum wage.
you got me grinch, i will become a congress member shortly, however, i am not complaining income taxes are to low i am saying if they were higher it would be better. i am already making a significant return. over 10% a month, when the theoretical max is 3% a year. and if i became a congress man i would just funnel the tax dollars into my pockets 🙂 though i have reached the point where i do not need more. i am limited by the energy regen. not by money nor gold, so i guess, improt taxes would help other players. but if other players don't see it and don't like it then go ahead keep them low.
i guess i have fought long enough, i am just going to laugh hysterically every time someone says the economy is bad. for they will never understand and i tried to help them but they did not want it.
never bite the hand that feeds you, i guess its a song but it makes sense. if someone is trying to help and you hurt them, they might not help you again.
and i also laugh at people with defeatist attitude. if you have been defeated try again if you want, if you do not want to try then sit back and enjoy it.
high import taxes. help reduce imports maybe a un noticable amount but it does help or no other country would do it.
in real life the usa government can print as much money for almost nothing. and get physical goods for it.
in this game. one cannot print money for free. and therefor in this game having usd dollars in your country encourages people to build more production buildings.
usa has nato, north american trade agreement, no import taxes from those that do not charge import taxes.
in this game if only one country lowers import taxes then people sell goods there, and i have already purchased 3 trading licenses to export a significant more amount of goods, to try to bring more usd to america. if you want to keep fighting me, if i bring 1k usd to american a day that is 25 more raw materials a american can make and 25 less raw materials a foreginer can.
and the usa doing good, there is no way to tell how well an economy is doing with low import taxes, and as we have see the average american lvl is 5 lvls below the world average. and the usa got wiped, we thought we were not doing bad, but we are doing bad. we will continue to export of production power for products and we will keep doing worse.
