It has come to the point where we must be willing to accept a grim reality. We are flat losing this war, and unless we receive the help we need the eUSA will be conquered by the end of a 72 hr period regardless of our efforts. As discouraging as this sounds, we should be rather proud of ourselves! It will take and ENTIRE alliance to take over our regions, that is rather impressive on our part if you ask me. About now we could start playing the "blame game" and giving our opinions on what went wrong, but listen... What is done is done! I was one of the more outspoken against military action during the
Shepherd Of Fire administration, but saying "I told you so" will not change a dang thing. Soooo I have decided that it would be nice for us to prepare for the occupation that will certainly come unless things turn around soon.
Listen, in no way should we make this occupation worthwhile to our enemies. I am going to outline some steps we as Americans can take to make sure our enemies do not benefit from our occupation, but it will take a lot of dedication on your part to make it successful.
No 1.
If you employ workers message them and let them know you will be paying them the same, but they will only receive $1 up front, and the remainder of their pay as a donation. This will greatly reduce the revenue our enemies will receive via the income tax.
No 2.
ONLY BUY IN USD!!! This is where it will get hard...
When a region is conquered you can only buy off the conquering nations product market. Many nations will have a Vat Tax (kinda like a sales tax) on finished products (ie. Food, Guns, Gifts, and Tickets). Now we don't want to give them money, but we will REALLY need the products, and our American business owners will also need to sell their products in USD.
All this can be accomplished via contracts, and even (though not recommended) by donations between Americans using our own currency. There are several ways for sellers to advertise, but the best way is utilizing the shout box and IRC.
I suggest you use IRC so things can be done in real time, instead of buyers and sellers having to wait hours upon hour to wait for the other player involved to get back online.
Right now the USA does not have a trade channel, but I am sure using #e-sim.usa will do just fine for no longer then we may be occupied.
If you do not know how to get on IRC
Feefaroni is an expert at it, but I will try to give you a quick run down.
You will need to register with an IRC hosting program, I prefer www.mibbit.com. Once registered you will need to select the rizon server and then type #e-sim.usa into the channel box.
You can also feel free to send me your advertisements and I will publish them in the "Liberty Flyer" free of charge.
I know this will be frustrating, but for one-thing we are not conquered as of yet, so we may never need to do it. But if we are conquered we will be denying our enemies the tax money they can then re-use against us.
No. 3
If we are occupied our Government will be without a source of income, hence vital programs will be forced to hold their spending. We need you as Americans to be willing to step to the plate and continue to pay taxes so our nation does not suffer from the effects of losing our regions. A simple 10-20% of your income donated to the
USA Org during a time of occupation will eliminate our enemies ability to rest, and eventually force them into recognizing they have messed with the wrong Patriots. 
I know this is long and dry, but in the event of occupation it is important that we remain united, for it is United we Stand, but Divided we Fall.
Stand Strong America!

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.
Invest, produce and sell - be an entrepreneur in E-Sim.
Take part in numerous events for the E-Sim community.
