    Yesterday, I did the same thing: Lowest Taxes vs Highest Wages. Whenever I wasn't in wars that gave me negative 400-600K, I always had a positive of around 700K and climbing on the latest update. I didn't know what I did to get that, but it ended up with everyone getting really high standards of living (except for the lower strata, from a range between 8.3-17.6).

    the more a product becomes available to the market, the more the market shifts to account for it, resulting in it becoming more in demand than ever before. once people realize they can buy steel, they buy steel. a good example of this in real world economics/theory are those raspberry pi like devices, before which we had something similar to it, but nobody bought it, everybody realized that the pi can fill a niche and then they were bought like hotcakes sell. eventually leading to the current environment where they are sold out everywhere, and the only things you can buy are the competing products on the market, which aren't hitting the same highs.
    what i mean by that, is that nobody cared/had a use for the rasberry pi, but once it started being sold, they couldn't make enough of them, because everybody had 'idea's, that they could not simply fulfill with regular devices anymore. especially the wifi zero, which made its way onto garage door openers, remote controlled cars, robots, flying drones.... all of which never used to require something like a computer.

    I think watching this gave me cancer. you made a lot of newer player mistakes. war was especially frustrating to watch while the system is far from good the reason you were losing was supply issues shortages heavily effect your army's ability to fight even if its a small one while it's dumb that you can't stockpile it you can use exports to keep the industry going in peacetime. as for other goods I usually go through a few different checks as to how to remedy that first being can I create it myself this can be through a variety of ways like production methods buildings conquest and only then will I import. if you are looking for an easy way to build GDP especially early game is to secure staple goods as your pops will always ensure that industry is steady and there wont be as many radicals. then after securing those goods check out the goods with great potential for import don't import them but focus on expanding your domestic industry to fill those needs. imports should always always be a tool of last resort as they are fickle and in the case of something like tools can really handicap your domestic growth by making it to unprofitable to domestically produce it. while you should be using the export mechanic largely for price stabilization and to introduce more money into your economy when necessary as in even if you have a surplus of say something like coal you should really try and expend it in your own market first before attempting to export it to someone else's market. this strategy led me to be able to get Sweden to 1 billion GDP with low taxes and high spending including things like welfare and still leaving me with making to much money. the game is all about build strategy and how you can attempt to build an economy.
    PS: if you have trouble trying to secure funds or having a buffer try and secure the gold mine in Brunei as well when you are looking to create new buildings always do it using the lenses and market pages so you can eyeball the amount you need to build so that you don't crash the price or build to little, and as previously mention by some other folks you should always be trying to expand how much construction you have access to I usually do it for every 6k or so income I'm getting as the construction limit will quickly become a bottleneck once you economy scales to a certain point.
    I hope this helps you to enjoy the game!
