Ok, I've started to see people set up customs offices in High sec with taxes a t 80-90%. Why in Gods name would they do this? This is not Low/Null sec, you WANT people to use your Planets. High Sec PI's profit is not in Planet Resources (P0s), they are too low for that, Dedicated PI players are going to go for P2-P4 Factory worlds. The Smart Owners will set low taxes at around 1-5%, to attract as many people to their systems as possible. Lets do some simply Math.
Say you own a system with 8 planets. Each Player will have at Minimum 6 Factory worlds. Each of those Factory worlds can produce 1-2mil per Player in Taxes per day at even 1%, or 6-12`mil per Player per day. Say you attract only 10 players to the System. That's 60-120mil per day with no work, PLUS your own PI, PLUS your Corp/Alliance PI.
So to recap, why are people choosing just alliance control, when they can have Alliance control AND make 1.8bil-3.60bil a month in Taxes? |

Sounds like your PI stuff is stuck on a planet and you don't want to pay the tax, and now you are crying on the forums.
Tears, that's why they did it, and they succeeded. |

Those people obviously do not understand economics. Or are doing it for fun.
If you want reasonable tax rates, come up to The Forge and look for an RvB-R or an RvB-B owned POCO, we have good rates for neutrals - 5% from us, and a recommendation to train Customs Code Expertise to V to knock the NPC tax down to 5% also, giving you a very favourable 10%

Maybe it's because there's more money to be made driving up the prices of PI goods. Or maybe it's because **** you. Or maybe it's both. More money for us. **** you. |

The results per tax rate will have the potential to be a lesson for real-world governments. Low taxed stations will have all the commerce. The high tax stations will look like East Germany in the late 80s.
Nobody will pay attention. |

Or for the early advantage of catching out the player who isn't concentrating, though as an unsustainable tax rate, it will either come down or they are doing it to drive other players away from the planet so it is all theirs. |

But by setting it to zero for my friends and 100% for everyone else I gain: - Cheap PI for me and my friends - Forum tears instead of competition from others. - Better price for the PI we produce. - Potential wardecs that can be handed over (and in some cases even sold) to dedicated PVP corps.
Sounds like a decent plan.

People can still do PI easy by just bypassing the Costumes office by jetting it into orbit. It's just the idiots that don't get the point of Taxes that get to me. |

Band together with other PI warriors.
Find a few systems with low radius factory-ready planets. Make sure these planets are well off teh beaten path.
Kill a few POCOs. Set 0% taxes.
Use freighters/couriers to handle high volume transport.
Make a killing.
Just because Goons or RVB takes down some of the high-demand planets near Jita doesn't mean you can't have good PI. You only need 6 planets right? Fighting is Magic |

You guys wouldn't happen to have some sort of... program... where savvy corporations can pay up front for standings allowing for a lower tax rate? Fighting is Magic |

that would actually be a pretty smart idea. Have base Tax set to 5% so taxes are at pre-Rubicon prices, then have a Program where people pay for a PI "license" to the Alliance that lets them have 1--2% taxes. I know I'd buy it. |

You obviously haven't had the pleasure of chatting with many High Sec folks. They really do not like to do much in groups, especially organised groups... Mangala Undocked |

As long as you guys could promise a steady tax rate (as in keep your Offices up and guarded), you could be Rattlesnake for all I care. But like I said, some kinda "PI License" might be something you want to look into, It could attract some business. |

"people don't understand economics" or maybe they do, and you don't. There's more to be had than the flashing numbers.
I'm looking cartels here, if there's the organisation there could be a huge shake up of status quo of PI

Which community? And what support?

Hardly, with low tax settings and no market gains it'll take forever just to recover the cost of the PoCo.

Which in most cases is calculated as part of the intended gain.
