RIPOFFSCAM also bought everything I offered in B2B. Made a whopping 8 million dollars (though I usually sell everything in B2B so I would have made those anyway)

The person supporting regenerating health, when asked why you can see when shot in the eye justified it as 'you put on an eyepatch'. When asked what happens when you are then shot in the other eye, he said that you put an eyepatch on that eye. When asked how you'd be able to see, he said that your first eye would have healed by then.

The entire game is close to being broken. With Steve Jobz (Ripoffscam), and few other folks generating fake money from the Stock Market and buying everything from B2B, the economic system has been nearly destroyed...

And there really no strategy to compete against this (these) assholes. Well, beside one, which is to go into self production retail chains...

I'm already considering selling my two slaughter houses to get a well and powerplant... but I'd perfer not too, but I'm running low on water and electricity.

Well, this is actually the best simulation of unregulated capitalysm ever

I'm self sustaining and all, so I can survive till the admin clean this mess.. But those empty companies have wildly oscillating stock, you can make more than a fair amount of money riding the scam. Free market at its finest!!!

Still got enough electricity left to keep producing my goods for two days or so and luckily bought a couple million litres water yesterday so I'll just keep on producing until the scam is over.

The problem is people can make a shell company and borrow 50% then dump all that money to another shell company and borrow another 50%. Repeat as desired.

I'm going to see if i can recover this broken company for shits and giggles, My other company bought all that beer at $150 (selling it ratail in my gas station at $150 will take 4 days so i won't technically be losing anything)
with the 1.4 million revenue i built a farm and some electricity/30 times as much water, then extended the farm to 275.
this company has quality 20 oranges and considering how fruit has increased in value i might manage to recover it. I just need to stay chairman for a few days to see if i can reverse the debt.

Do nothing and wait for the dev to decide what to do with all this chaos in the economy.

Became CEO of a fake company but it was sitting on 100s of millions of water and electricity.  Posted most of it on B2B for .10/each and sold off my shares.  Hopefully that'll help a bit.   :)

7 million debt isn't that much really, unless it's anything like my junk company which has no assets/sales/production/profit/no hope.
Your best bet is to sell your shares and abandon ship.
