Every store has to deal with "shrinkage" (loss.)
You put 50 cans of cookies on the shelf, 48 cans get sold, the shelf is empty.
You calculate the price of the cookies to account for the loss.
Its part of any business.
Also part of business is that other vendors will interdict your shipment of goods, to set their prices higher.
Eve is a PVP game, and that PVP is economic and industrial in addition to military.
And I think carebears should stop calling themselves "crafters."
Where I'm from, everybody mines, everybody builds, everybody fights.
If you ask me, highsec sucks and anybody who is past 1-2 months should get the heck out of highsec.

where you are from is one hell of an inefficient place
You're right.
It's much more efficient to get ganked and whine about it.

High sec ganking is for those who fear real challenge of their peers and only bet on the sure thing. Even noobs see it for what it is.
Piracy has nothing to do with "challenge."
It's a robbery not a competition.
Avoid the strong and attack the weak, that's warfare 101, read your Sun Tzu.

It just doesn't make sense to me in a RL perspective. Guy comes up to me and shoots me. Cops show up and shoot him. While cops are shooting him, guys buddy walks up and empties my wallet, in full view of the cops.
If you want realistic robbery, have concord show up 15 minutes after the gank and spend 2 hours at the crime scene eating donuts and asking you what color the hauler was that took your loot.

Get a f*cking grip people.
Theres crime in Eve, theres crime in Tokyo, theres crime in New York City, theres crime in Paris, theres crime in London, theres crime in Jita, Rens, Oursalaert...
Right at this moment someone in Moscow is getting robbed.
It's a statistic. x % of haulers get through, y % get ganked.
What, you want crime free Eve?
A world without crime is fantasy not sci fi.
People are getting robbed in highsec and they SHOULD be getting robbed in highsec.
Why the f*ck are you even playing Eve if you're gonna whine about the existance of crime?
