I am building Integrity Response Drones out of bought raw planet material.
Spent 58.5 million on the raw materials and I got the material cheap.
The drones sold for 42 million. 
So basically Planetary Interaction is a huge ISK sink. Yet another worthless expansion from CCP.

So you could have done the math along the way (or used the math other people on these forums provided), discovered that you would make more isk by selling other PI products (maybe coolant/enriched uranium/biofuels, I don't know) than drones, and made more money but you didn't. And that's because PI is an "isk sink". Or were you being sarcastic?
I am saying that the time and effort put into trying to produce the current profitable item for the day is easily eclipsed by ONE high sec level 4 mission.
Do you understand that? 1 level 4 mission. And not to mention I don't have to go thru the mess of market PvP trying to buy whatever items at the cheapest and sell at the most just to break even or if your lucky turn a slight profit.

Oh, you don't want the mind numbing repetativeness of 15 minutes of double clicking per toon per day. You just wanted to set up a bunch of processor planets in high sec. Fill them with resources once a day and come back to pick up all the completed goods. Oh.... Yeah, that is what everyone wanted to do. So, yeah, no profit in that.
Over 58 million in cost (not including import and export fees) and the finished product only selling for 42 million. I'm no rocket scientist but I would call that one big ****ing money pit.
Bottom line is P.I. is an ISK sink.

weak argument
So P.I. is a feature that players will have to wait a few months before doing because its broken. NPC seeded stuff as your competition. Players exploiting prior to players being able to actually extract from the planets.
Think I'll just go back to bearing in the north. Not only do I not have to worry about getting my Primea suicided because someone thought it would be lulz like what happened yesterday, but it is safer. Oh.. and I will enjoy selling my plex loot to you empire pubbies at over a million times more profit than your precious watered down, diet Sim City.
