If you buy a Q5 weapon from the market, it costs you around 7 dollars, of which 0.33 dollars is VAT. If you buy the same weapon from the same market for the same price but from a foreign seller, the percentage of taxes in the final price rise from 4.7% to 16.7%. More money for the State? Yeah, that's cool, but it's not cool that now there's 0.11g less gold in American pockets. If the majority of the sellers would be foreign citizens, it would soon drain lot of gold from us and slowly lower the salaries, lower the tax income and take money away from the State's treasury, causing inflation.
There are few Q5 gun sellers from abroad, because they can get more for selling their products on strade or in some other market, where the import tax isn't 15%. What is more alerting is that, for example, this Polish player Chillyreiz owns an American stock market company called USA, which doesn't have to pay import tax at all. These Greek guys also have their own stock company for avoiding taxes, called The Minions. They can import stuff with unfair competition to other importers and get the 15% import tax to their own pockets, getting even more gold away from our economy and increasing the speed of inflation caused by importing being higher than exporting.
How do we fight against this inflation monster (see above) that makes our children cry, our friends sad, our employers pissed off and our state lose money? Don't buy products that are produced abroad, even from the American market. You may save THREE dollars if you buy 300 Polish guns which are a penny cheaper the American ones just below the Polish ones in the market. How do you know it's 100% American? Check who the seller is and where the companies are located. If those are in the US, you can say that those the guns are most likely produced in America, and if the same guy has a iron company in the States too, it's pretty likely the guns are 100% American. I can only guarantee that Barbwire Industries makes 100% American guns and iron COMPLETELY without tax dodging. Even I as the CEO and major owner have an average salary of which I pay an income tax from.
American Q5 gun.If you have a company in the US and you want to help our economy, you might consider exporting your products. It does the opposite to our economy, it increases the salaries and the amount of gold getting to our national treasury.

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.
