Global Trade Market...questions...concerns...complants!!!

I happen to agree with most of the posts here. As frustrating as the game is, I enjoy it. So here is what I did. I deleted my first game out of frustration. All the trade center was giving back then was Fu,s items and donuts. I was at level 36. I could not expand any longer. I started again, got frosted once again and deleted it again. This time I stop leveling at level 10. I spent two weeks buying and selling, making plastic and seeds and selling. I expanded my storage to 240 and bought all available expansion slots, then continued expanding. Now I'm up to level 50 something and nearly 1 million sims. At least I can contine because now I can make everything I need. Granted there are new frustrations like addeding new sims adds very little to the tax base. Expanding requires more parts or a constant reset of the plans until a reasonable plan set is provided. I have to smile when in order to build one building it will cost nearly 40-50,000 plus the cost of road expansion and city services while the tax base increases a whole 18 per day at this level. A real major would be fired. But. Hey it's just a game and a complete waist of time like most games.
