To the people who are ruining the economy
•
by SATZU
There are few things in this game that are important, one of those is economy, and the stronger economy is the stronger country is. In eJapan the economy would be quite nice and strong but there are few imperialists who are doing whatever they want just because they can. Those people have money and they have power. The basic thing on keeping the prices on the market competitive and good is competition. That is the thing what eJapan misses a lot.
Few company owners who claim that they are doing it for the people don't understand that they are actually ruining the economy quite a lot. (I may give some examples in this article)
Everyone who owns a company knows that on manufacturing and land you should have 10 workers, no more no less. And on construction 20 workers. Some players in eJapan have "training facilities" and companies that they dont care about so much. BUT!!
The most important thing when doing business is that you should allways make a profit, otherwise you are ruining the economy by underpricing others out. If you sell under your production costs you are harming everyone. And if you have a training facility, when country is in a lack of employees DONT RUN YOUR TRAINING FACILITY, keep it offline when there is a lack of employees and not enough to run companies trying to get those.
IF you REALLY are for the people, and you have a training facility, now is time to fire employees from there to get them to work at other companies. On manufacturing business there is HUGE lack of employees and some companies are overwhelming with them.
owners of these companies IF you want to help eJapan fire every employee that exceeds 10, because then other companies can recruit them and the competition increases on eJapan which will make the economy stronger.

Nippon Weapons
AKU-Food Q3
YaKuZa-Food
IF YOU DONT BELIEVE ME JUST ASK AND I WILL EXPLAIN IT BETTER!!!
I know that nippon weapon is national, but every worker that exceeds 10 lower the productivity by 1 employee, which effects so that the 11th etc is useless!!!
Please for the sake of eJapan economy DONT RUIN THE ECONOMY! There are many companies trying to get the 10 employees full. To help japan help them.

Great article. It's true that so many company owners have 999 offers for jobs. It's quite disgusting. However, ethics play little part in business. Most of the time, it's a matter of who can outlast everyone else. Welcome to capitalism...
I understand where you are coming from, and I symphasize - I am trying to fill the 20 positions required for a housing company.
You must see though that going well above the maximum eventually becomes profitable again. 25 Workers at that food company will turn out a lot of product - enough to negate the loss of extra productivity. It has been tested by myself and other GMs in the USA. So you are wrong about the non-profitable part.
However, I do feel that it is quite greedy to hoard employees when other companies cant fill the 10 slots. It comes down to business ethics. And that is a grey area.
I agree with you, but fear you may be just making noise, and noise is usually ignored.
Although it is true what you say about productivity in a time of a shortage of workers but all GMs are out for themselves and if you think that they will feel bad if other companies go bankrupt then you are mistaken.
Of course they will most likely all say in publci that they want whats best for the country, especially the GMs that are also in the government but until practice matches promises then maybe people should remember who has best interstes for country when election time comes.
@Hitoshi Makoto: Ethics sure play small part, but government made weapon company and president who speaks that he is there for people, both should think about the best on national level.
@Angrr: You are right on that, but this is an article that is trying to make eJapan's economy one step closer for being competitive country.
@no1kevlin: No one feels bad if competitive companies bankrupt, but I am trying to reach public good with this.
I know why you are writing this, and I applaud you for it.
I hope this article has some effect.
Just curious...
Did you handle any government owned company?
And I really really wish you good luck with this, I have no luck with making businessman stick to maximum amount of employees.
@Angrr: Thank you.
@Kogarashi Hazuki: I dont handle any government owner companies? I am not allowed in that. Why so? If I would control, I would keep it only as training purposes and would fire any player that exceeds skill 3 even if it is so important thing like weapons. Because there are some good rules when playing with economy. And ruling country. I would do lot of things regarding government companies differently.
@no1kevlin: You would be right, if the person in control of these companies wasn't President Akki. He will indeed say that he wants the best for the country and that could even be true. He could have done it to make sure all newcomers have a job and to make sure they stay here. It happened in the past, but that was when the amount of workers didn't matter. But currently there isn't a lack of jobs, so i don't see the need to hire more workers then are useful or to set the amount of job offer at 999, although i don't think Akki would really hire that many 🙂
2 many companies and 2 little active ppl thats the prob i would say
btw nice article
I remember that training facilities where built in eJapan in the beginning of Erepublik v1, but they really don’t make much sense now.
For those who remember me from beta and from the early days of v1, hello and I AM BACK.
Macroeconomically, you're absolutely right. But from an individual company perspective, as long as the MFP > MCP (each employee costs less than the goods they produce) they should hire more workers.
@Vincent: Well thing is, no law in eRepublik really forbids this. Any wealthy foreigner can come here, and totally ruin our economy. Well actually, you don't even have to be wealthy. 1 company running long enough can do the job. It's a major loop-hole, but no one is dumb enough to do it.
@whac: But in eJapan the one doing it is not foreigner, it is Akki mostly. But I understand, he wants to have total control over eJapan. I dont mean this the bad way, he gave me seat (which seems to be useless because my opinions havent been listened)
