For one thing - Most RMT operations is actually based in the US, secondly not every RMT is actually chinese, Korea also has a high RMT population, lastly no one is treated like 'second class citizens' or you wouldn't even have this game. It's not that the Japanese don't buy gil, it's more like that culture isn't 100% in the "must have everything NOW NOW NOW" mentality when it comes to MMOs, which is why for example you can do a JP DF of TItan and sometimes wipe 20 times and they'll still push at it until they win, whereas on NA/EU ones...one wipe or even one person get hit by a plume you usually have people dropping like flies.
