And after everything in high sec is taxed to 95% and industry obliterated and any other ham-fisted changes...

after all of that...

And players still choose to not fall into the folds of the null coalitions to become a F1 monkey; then what?

that would only increase prices ppl would just jf mats to losec build ninja to hisec

null sec has everything it need
top planets
ice belts
all ores
moon goo

but instead of building a empire to match hisec nullers would rather smash everyone or blue everyone
yes a few things need buff like pos and stations but for most part nuller have everything at they disposal if they choose not to utalise thats theyet problem no need to nurf other areas or cry on forums

I agree with the declaration that null is what players made it, but I realize that I can change it.

Of course... So lets say that "Country A" has great industry on the west side, while on the east side is is uneconomical... So what do you do? Destroying flawlessly working factories on the west or buffing poor and unbalanced industry on the east? (by some advantages like better material/time manufacturing ratio etc)...

Pitty and childish

So, I've read a ton of back and forth on this, and here's my question. Is there actually, really, a lack of industrial ability in null, or is it nullseccers wanting industrialists in a place where they can get gudfites?

A simple in-game mechanic to nudge industrial work into null would be a tariff. Cross from high to null or vice versa, get charged a fee on your cargo. Slide the fee in such a way that, based on cost of production in null, it would be cheaper to just build there. Problems solved. Those with deep pockets can eat the tariff and do things where it's safe. People feeling risky and looking to make a buck can undercut the fee and produce in null. High sec folks keep what they have, nullseccers see more industry, everyone is happy.

They just need more industrialist slaves to build their toys.

OR

you could eat a **** sandwich and Ill get my megacyte from wspace. You know, the place most nullbears are scared of because of no local.

Have any of you null dwellers ever stopped to think that Null is exactly what YOU have made it!

You whine and fart about in the forums while you sit in null in a continuous circle jerk, if you got off your sorry arses and encouraged settlers into your area of Null you could perhaps develop it to a respectable level

IGÇÖm sorry to disillusion you but the only game mechanics that prevent a solution are the entitled egomaniacs ensconced in positions of power in null, in a Sand Box anything is possible they just lack the intelligence to make it happen.

I call Bullshit on this one, anything can be overcome and trying to blame it on GÇ£hardcoded game mechanicsGÇ¥ just demonstrates that very lack of intelligence that I was attacking in my earlier posts.
