I run my 2 accounts of factory based PI's still, even with this massive tax hike. You still make isk if your smart. You will have to restructure your inputs and have slightly lower outputs due to that, but profit will still be flowing in, just no where near as much as before.
If you find your unable to turn a profit with factory planets, then it is more due to your either lack of skill at finding the right commodity to make, or that your buying the lower tier goods at too high a price.
Yes the high sec tax frigging sucks, but you get over it and get going. Remember the market WILL go up, it just needs more time to react to the body blow it just got delt. Also I'm sure the stockpilers are VERY happy now :P |

Taxes aren't even balanced. Processed tax is way too much.
Example: Factories required to have 8 high tech running 24/7
15480 processed -> export tax = 334,368,000 isk per hour
960 refined -> export tax = 20,736,000 isk per hour
126 specialized -> export tax = 21,168,000 isk per hour
8 high tech -> export tax = 25,920,000 isk per hour
And you have to pay import taxes aswell. Some can be avoided but it's a small part.
And, no, I won't go to low/null. I can't. I can't even afford to pay this much taxes every day. I extracted one of my P2 planets, had to pay 2,970,000 isk
I already stopped making control towers few weaks ago because profit is too weak. Guess I completely stop PI now.
I feel my 3 subscriptions will follow soon. |

When you do, can I have your stuff?
On a side note, tax is never even. It's usually relative to your income as to how much tax you pay, why shouldn't it be the same here? If you where making control towers before and making money on it, and now complaining about a mear 3 mill in taxes and threatening to quit doing it, go ahead, but to me soemthing just doesn't add up with your story. I'm not refuting your numbers because I don't have the time and/or inclination to worry about them right now.
As I've said many times before, give it a week or two and the PI P1-P4 prices will see a marked jump in cost, how much is anyones guess, but until then just sit tight and do something else to enjoy the game and line your pockets with ISK. Once the prices rise to a more comfortable level for you, jump back into PI and make ISK passively again, though it won't be as much as it once was possibly. |

Ever notice that this never works? The people who do not want to go to low/null will not go to low/null, and no amount of punishing them ever changes this.. all that happens is they stop doing the activity and the market shifts.
Plus, I doubt we will see many POCOs in low sec... to expensive, to easy to destroy. PoSes can survive because of the moon material prices (and inability to mine them at all in high sec) and the feasiblity of making them self defending.. or at least too much of a pain to attack. POCOs are just sitting targets and tear generators. |
