There can be no solution to which there is no problem.
Multi-boxing is a non-issue. CCP hath supported it. CCP hath endorsed it. CCP hath pushed hard for you to have more than one account going to so far as to make this game completely and utterly boring after 6 months for a lone toon.
The fact of this game is, if you have one account you're going to spend many hours doing nothing, wasting your time and effort trying to do something or playing the same boring content (haha, yeah that's laughable) ad nauseam.
If you're not willing to or capable of having multiple accounts then stop trying to tear down those that do, especially those that have enough alts to make multiboxing using isboxer and the like attractive tools.
Now, a single player with a single toon is a viable option in this game, it's just you'll need to associate yourself with enough active and like minded people to successfully play in aspects that are no place for a lone toon. With that said, multiple accounts do make the flow of the game more even. Having a single toon means, boring single player content aside, you're more likely to be the type of person that is waiting for something to happen with which you can take part.: i.e. log on, see if anything is going on, if not log off and go do something else. Kind of crappy for a game you're paying $180/yr for but it is what it is. There are other alternatives out there to Eve.
If you still feel compelled to play Eve then I would suggest going with 3 alts. A PVP toon, a PVE toon and an industrialist toon. I find the power of 3 far superior to the power of 2. My needs are sculpted directly by the environment in Eve that I play, w-space. I feel no need to go beyond 3 toons. Farming isk is not that difficult to get startup capital to fund industrialist ventures to further augment your income all while buying plex w/ isk for all 3 toons. I can do most things on my own in the arena of w-space that I inhabit but, do associate with other bitter vets in a corp.
Like I said, the game is what it is. You should accept that and either play the game or move on. But, in no way do I feel people playing with +10 alts using isboxer are somehow taking away from me or anyone else. Why you do, I can only characterize as malicious envy. *shrugs*
