WHPR Day 1518 - 100/100, and Oblige's Secret
James S. Brady Press Room
Dateline: Monday January 16, 2012 (Day 151
😎
Location: White House Press Room
USA has 100/100 Resources! (So, What's the Big Deal?)
How it happened, Militarily
Guest Writer: Juan Ladino of The Times Square Report
Mexico recently attempted to liberate Baja from New Croatia, and due to Spain's help and Croatia's reoccupation with Serbia, the Mexicans were able to reestablish their long bygone country. But only for a short period of time as with their newly established independence, the Mexicans launched an ill-fated naive attack on California with Q6 weapons in hand. Counting on ONE support, the Mexicans were hung out to dry as they were promptly defeated at California and their country wiped once again by the US invasion of Baja, which granted America a hefty weapons bonus.
In Europe, America, using her regions in France, attacked the Spanish region of Navarra, which supplied deer to the capital using a transport route going through Aquintaine. Finally, adding the crowning jewel in America's 100/100 crown is the acquisition of the Spanish region Asturias.
These regions will inevitably be under attack and RW's, and America will be expected to keep these attacks at bay if she is to maintain economic superiority.
What it means to our Economy
Guest Writer: Secretary of Treasury Kemal Ergenekon
Our country has reached maximum bonuses, the pinnacle of economic boost any country can achieve. The boost in the productivity has increased supply of every commodity, and the prices of raw materials, food and weapons have fallen.
We advise all our players to take advantage of this situation. Raw materials company owners would find this time ideal to use the Toolboxes they have stocked. Q5/Q6 Food/Weapons company owners should see this as a chance to employ as many workers as possible.
And if you have the storage space, it might be wise to stock up on raw materials when they are cheap. As always, investors should focus on Q4 Raw Material firms; i.e. Cattle Farms and Saltpeter Mines.
How it affects us all as Consumers
Guest Writer: Dep Sec State and Economic Council Chairman Evry
Consumers are actually benefiting from this the most. Due to the extra bonuses, supply of RM and of finished goods are through the roof. This means that the increase in supply and thus competition is resulting in crashing prices across all of our markets.
WRM and FRM have decreased by nearly 33% in the last week and a half, with tanks and food coming down as well. This makes everything cheaper to buy and therefore more can be bought with the same wage.
If Americans like the way this is working out in their pocketbooks, they'll pay close attention to the rogue RWs started in these key regions and make sure we hold them.

'We advise all our players to take advantage of this situation. Raw materials company owners would find this time ideal to use the Toolboxes they have stocked. Q5/Q6 Food/Weapons company owners should see this as a chance to employ as many workers as possible'
I am not sure I understand these statements. America has an over abundance of all product, driving prices down, yet we are being advised by the Secretary of Treasury to use our tool boxes to add even more product to the market; driving prices even lower. Since I believe most Q5/Q6 Food/Weapons companies are communes and since the Q5 rubber plantation I work on is getting ready to lower our wages the second statement is also out of left field.
As President, I'd like to put to rest these TOTALLY OUTLANDISH AND NOT AT ALL 100% TRUE claims that my entire cabinet is made up of aliens. Only some of them are. Like Tenshibo.
Oblige for Miss America!
Untrue. I actually run my Q5 tank company at a pretty good profit without communing it or reducing wages too badly thus far. Matter of fact, I just hired on an extra worker. I also don't do day labor, meaning if you work for me, you will continue to work for me as long as you put in at least 5 days a week of work. Workers working 7 will get bonuses as an incentive for retention.

One of the best WHPR's in a long time. Really like the format. Interesting stories. Good job, y'all!

Nice article!
I'm not an economic genius, but if RM prices are going down, shouldn't we *save* our toolboxes until the prices come back up? Maybe I'm missing something ...
~hyuu~
I don't think he means to *sell* them. I think he means work them now and saves the RMs while the iron's hot, just in case we lose a bonus.
Voted. Good article.

like Oxygen said... I would think that using the toolboxes to increase production, while limiting the amount of RMs put up for sale and stockpiling them, would keep prices from dropping to unprofitable levels while building a personal cushion against future inflation. I'm not a major producer or an employer, just a daily "get by" guy, and that's what I'm gonna do.

If you stockpile, you'll have to consider the additional expense of buying more land and storage.
As far as investing in Saltpeter Mines and Cattle Ranches are concerned, as an investor (not a consumer), the regional bonuses are only beneficial if the number of days it took for me to recoup my investment went down. With the overabundance, it hasn't. While regional bonuses are good for the consumer, they aren't good for the investors, who are the ones that took their hard earned USDs and bought these companies.

It's spam rainy. Don't try to understand,
Learn to embrace the absence of logic.
I'm very happy with top bonuses.
-my q4 raws are producing more than ever, and even though that raw prices are very low (compared to a couple of weeks before), gold prices have fallen down like 20%, so the money i make is still the same.
-food is much cheaper!!
-tanks are much cheaper!!
life is good!
