I usually post only 1 article per day, but I am too angry at the moment to care about it.
As every E-American can see, the economy of our country is going down, to say the least.
The person responsible for it? Why our very own President, of course. You don't believe? Well, let's see.
While every other company is forced to decrease the salary of their workers, some by even 75%, our very own President has decided that since his own company is the most important, seeing as he as the owner the most important person, he has set the bar very high against every other company owner. When others are forced to pay their 'lvl 5 economic skills' workers 8$ or less, the President has set the salary at 8.1 USD for a 'lvl 1 economy skill' worker. Whatever happened to bringing 'equality' and 'no partiality'? What is the President trying to prove? That he has so much more money than others that he can ignore a small thing such as 'Economical Crisis'?
Or maybe he want's everyone to know that as long as they work for him, they will be alright, even if the rest of the country flounders and drown in poverty. That the others, who are no less hard-working than him, can rot and go to hell, while he continuesly favours those who proclaim him their 'God'?
This small incident, the WAR, has plummeted the country into despair, yet for the King and his Court of his cronies, it's just another jolly day, all sunshine and daisy.
If asked, I'm sure that the President would give the excuse that he is making sure that even the least experienced player in the country does not go empty handed. But is it really the case?
If it is so, then why does his actions seems to kick other company owners in their stomachs? If he decides to pay the least skilled/experienced players a 'handsome' salary that is higher than the one that others pay to their most skilled and experienced players, than who will work for the other players? Why would anyone work for less, when they can get more for the same or even less work?
The result? Well, as the President has really, really deep well of fortune, he continues to pay his workers out of his own pocket. The other company owners are forced to close their companies and have to put them in the market for sale because they are experiencing loss, with their company's production and profit being less than the cost of raw material/mining, producing and manufacturing resources and paying workers, if there are some workers who haven't left to work for the minister.
And then? Why, the President comes to the rescue of these unfortunate company owners. He sweeps down from his high throne, buys all these companies, and then becomes the sole producer of every resources in ALL OF USA!!!
Maybe he'll donate some of the money for the good cause of helping 'the poor citizens', or convert his 'hard earned' money into gold, which will then be donated to the 'Treasury' of the same country, of which HE is the President. Going in circles, Mr. President?
So, you either work for the president, or he'll bankrupt you, choose your pick. You either support him and give him your vote or he'll create another war and plunge the country in an even deeper shit, pardon my french.
My dear President, you do not resemble a leader at all. Your smallest action lead to chaos and bring loss for everyone, but you, of course.
That, in simple forms, is callled bullying. Or in fancy words it's called Dictatorship or Tyranny.
Maybe the War has made him very unstable and and the constant 'backstabbing' from his trusted cabinet members and the lack of support from us 'Ungrateful' people, have made him very stressed.
Dear President, this is not good for your health. your head and heart will burst if you continue to be this stressful. Please take some rest. Step down from the position and cool down a bit.
Maybe try to remember why you started playing this game. To enjoy and have fun. Maybe you should try your hand at gardening. It's good for health and peace of mind.
That's all readers! My anger has burnt me out and I need to work in real world. So have a GOOD Day all of you!

About the game:
USA as a world power? In E-Sim it is possible!
In E-Sim we have a huge, living world, which is a mirror copy of the Earth. Well, maybe not completely mirrored, because the balance of power in this virtual world looks a bit different than in real life. In E-Sim, USA does not have to be a world superpower, It can be efficiently managed as a much smaller country that has entrepreneurial citizens that support it's foundation. Everything depends on the players themselves and how they decide to shape the political map of the game.
Work for the good of your country and see it rise to an empire.
Activities in this game are divided into several modules. First is the economy as a citizen in a country of your choice you must work to earn money, which you will get to spend for example, on food or purchase of weapons which are critical for your progress as a fighter. You will work in either private companies which are owned by players or government companies which are owned by the state. After progressing in the game you will finally get the opportunity to set up your own business and hire other players. If it prospers, we can even change it into a joint-stock company and enter the stock market and get even more money in this way.
In E-Sim, international wars are nothing out of the ordinary.
Become an influential politician.
The second module is a politics. Just like in real life politics in E-Sim are an extremely powerful tool that can be used for your own purposes. From time to time there are elections in the game in which you will not only vote, but also have the ability to run for the head of the party you're in. You can also apply for congress, where once elected you will be given the right to vote on laws proposed by your fellow congress members or your president and propose laws yourself. Voting on laws is important for your country as it can shape the lives of those around you. You can also try to become the head of a given party, and even take part in presidential elections and decide on the shape of the foreign policy of a given state (for example, who to declare war on). Career in politics is obviously not easy and in order to succeed in it, you have to have a good plan and compete for the votes of voters.
You can go bankrupt or become a rich man while playing the stock market.
The international war.
The last and probably the most important module is military. In E-Sim, countries are constantly fighting each other for control over territories which in return grant them access to more valuable raw materials. For this purpose, they form alliances, they fight international wars, but they also have to deal with, for example, uprisings in conquered countries or civil wars, which may explode on their territory. You can also take part in these clashes, although you are also given the opportunity to lead a life as a pacifist who focuses on other activities in the game (for example, running a successful newspaper or selling products).
At the auction you can sell or buy your dream inventory.
E-Sim is a unique browser game. It's creators ensured realistic representation of the mechanisms present in the real world and gave all power to the players who shape the image of the virtual Earth according to their own. So come and join them and help your country achieve its full potential.
