How to fix your country's economy:

Part 1: Vital Infrastructure

You need a high education index to ensure an adequate supply of workers. In theory, you would think that an education index of 100 would be sufficient, because you would be training exactly as many workers as you needed.

However, in practice you need a much higher education index, in order to train many MORE workers than you actually need. This is because the labor market in simcountry fluctuates constantly, and you never know for certain which types workers you may need more of at any given time. You should always try to maintain an education index of AT LEAST 200. With an education index as low as your country has, your country is at risk of frequent shortages in various worker groups.

Also, because the simcountry labor market fluctuates constantly, you therefore need to regularly update your country's education priorities. However, you also need t

No your right to want more. If your country is set up well then there's no reason why your cash situation should be an issue.

Whats your country order strat at? ie buy x amount at x water mark. Could be that.

Your employment index should be higer. The more unemployed you have the more you pay out on social security. Aim for above 90% at a minimum.

How much military have you got? It's often the case people buy up loads of military then wonder why they aint making money. There's really no need to have any military in your country in peace time. Ammo is all you need. If you've got a ceo and space infrastucture you can move all the military your likely to need. Obviously the bigger u get then you'll need some, but for a newish player like yourself your unlikely to be declared on if you keep your head down

Lastly I'd close those maintainece corps you've got and get the workers employed in

"i just want more out of the game than its ofering probably" ~ No, actually you can get far more out of the game than you are getting out of it. You just have to manage your country properly.

#1: You should simply abandon the other six countries in your empire and only keep Diastmotill, because it is the country with the largest population. You're nowhere near ready to handle multiple countries yet. The administrative costs of running each individual country increase with each new country in your empire, and this makes a larger empire more difficult to sustain.

#2: In Diastmotill, your education index is only 107.73. It needs to be much higher than that! Your health index, transportation index and social security index are all OK for now, but you need to raise your education index immediately! When you can afford it, you should begin raising your health, transportation and social security indexes as well.

#3: You only

Tying selling at 30% plus quality minus 10% each month.

Buy at minus 4% plus 8% each month. Thistrat you'll prob run into shortages of FMU's but dont worry your corps can still produce.

A good way of working out which strat suits you best is to start with a low strat then keep upping it every year or so till you hit the sweet spot. Use the charts to see the progress.

I had another peek at your countries and there actually in decent shape. What I will say is your tax is to low for a state corp econ.

You should decide before you go any further wether to stick with state corps or try get ceo's in.

For a state econ you want high taxes. 70-75% something like that. For ceo's you want it at 0% to encorage them in.

Having a big military though your never likely to make fantastic money. Just the way it is.

I've destroyed all the military in my country so I can make the most cash possible. Until I got 20T or more I wont be adding any. That's something most new players should keep in mind.

All that said your actually on your way to having a decent empire.

High taxes won't help state corporations at all.

Increase the average supply quality of your state corporations to 170-180 and set sale strategies to Quality+10 or Quality+20.
Private corporations are still better overall.

I've been thinking something along similar lines - especially since it's so hard to raise the education and other relevant indexes to extremely high levels in multiple locations at the same time.

Been thinking of breaking down the corporations by percentages of employees - and starting a slave off by inputting more of the ones that are labor intensive to keep employment up while segueing towards a high tech industrial base.

Let me know how it works out for you?
