a possible solution to the getting industrials into 0.0 would be the big alliances not only renting out their 0.0 systems to industrial corps but also renting out "protection fleets".
example an indy corp (corp A) rents a system from a controlling alliance for say, 100mil a month for a non upgraded system or 200mil a month for a upgraded system
the controlling alliance supplies corp A with a 50 man protection fleet (corp b) for an additional 100mil per day (dt to dt) or 100 man protection fleet for 200mil per day.
So... you want the PvPers to work for you for 2 million a day each?  Clean yer shoes, guv'nor! god bless you sweet master, a shiney sixpence! Thankee sir, now we can eat right well on turnips tonight! Only another 67 days doing protection work and I can save up for a shiney new HAC!
i was merely making an example to convey the idea - fees themselves would be determined on the alliance
The example you showed, however, is off by way more than you think - it's not a matter of just fiddling with the numbers a bit to make it work.
Obviously, no pvp'er is going to rent their services for 2 mil a day, when they can literally make at least 10X that in an hour of ratting, which is (marginally) more exciting than watching another ships mining lasers.
So, you'd have to pay the pilots more on the order of 20mil/hr EACH - even with a 50 man protection fleet that's 1 billion/hr. At what point does it just not become economically viable to pay for protection? I heard that even 0.0 mining is only 10-15mil/hr per pilot - you'd need alot of miners to make a 1 billion isk/hr protection fee worthwhile.
Even a small out of corp protection fleet (5 pvp pilots), is going to cost 500mil for 5 hours of work - you'd need dozens of miners to make it worthwhile, at which point 5 pilots can't protect them all.
