I have been thinking about how we can make the economy more fun. I have tried to keep the ideas simple, to allow the admins relatively easy implementation. 24 hours after I publish this article, I will send the article link to the admins. In Clopoyaur's recent Twitch video with some of the eRepublik team they said they do listen to community feedback. So, make sure you vote and endorse this article to show them these ideas are popular, and hopefully we might see some of these suggestions in game one day.
Defence systems and hospitals
Allow players / governments to set up defence system and hospital companies. House raw materials or HRM's could be renamed and used to produce both hospitals and defence systems. For example HRM becomes BRM: building raw materials.
More on Defence systems and hospitals
Hospitals or defence systems could be stacked on top of each other to allow for almost unlimited production for each. For example a Q1 defence system could add 1,000,000,000 defensive points to a region and a Q5 defence system could add 5,000,000,000 defensive points to a region. x1 Q1 + x1 Q5 = 6,000,000,000 defensive points in the same region.
'Companies that create companies'
Make companies that can create food companies, weapons companies, house companies or raw materials companies. Companies that create companies could work in much the same way existing companies do using FRM, WRM or HRM; with workers producing a finished product.
Energy bars / bazookas
Allow energy bars and / or bazookas (finished bazookas, not bazooka parts as these are sold under 'special items') to be sold on the marketplace.
Guerilla items
Allow some, all, or 'coming soon' guerilla items such as the guns, grenades and protection items to be made in factories and sold via the marketplace.
'Protein bars' (Consumable training boost)
We have training ground upgrades, but no consumable product to boost training. A 'protein bar' or a consumable training boost could be introduced making each train more effective. These would need factories to produce and could use FRM to make the finished product.
If you like these ideas vote and endorse this article. I am planning articles on: military suggestions, media suggestions, political suggestions and 'service sector' suggestions. Subscribe now to make sure you don't miss any! If you have any suggestions PM me, or use the comments section below.

I've ticketed them suggesting the look at games like e - sim and nick ideas like:
1) MUs owning companies & employing members directly
2) Companies can be sold/gifted
I've even suggested they allow raw materials to be giftable
I would gladly sell my Guerilla items, I don't use them (the moment when you get 3 x free spins in a row during the Power spin and the forth thing you get is Guerilla items, I just "love" it)

" they said they do listen to community feedback"
and you believe that?
(facepalm)
Max, you are old enough to remember all those suggestions from various players. You should remember at least revolutions and what response from erep team? Ignorance and bans. Learn from other mistakes and use your time and energy for something that will give you something in return.
p.s. simple example about their attitude: http://prntscr.com/7p5vkx simple question about game mechanics and they dont give a **** to answer. And i got more tickets like this - not answered for moths or marked as solved but actually not.
