if i spend my time going through the market and putting in alot of work to make good sales, why should the corp profit from my invested time and isk...
If corps need isk you run a corp op to get some, your idea is ridiculous to say the least
whoa whoa whoa back up a step. I rat my ass off to make my money and im investing my time and money in that. so why should i be taxed for my investment, but not you for yours? it goes both ways.

How about a monthly (or maybe a customizable period) income tax?
The mechanic records your total isk on a certain date (taxing assets would be a pain, so screw it), then after a set interval it would compare your isk totals. If you made isk, it would subtract your previous isk total from your current isk total. Then the mechanic would calculate the tax from that amount.
It would not be a perfect system, but I see it being better than having no tax at all and it would only tax profit.
and then when i transfer the 50 billion from my main to my alt, how would it calculate my tax. This isnt quicken, just implement the tax to market sales it isnt that difficult.

Keep the interval only known to the CEO.
That way the CEO could change it at a whim and you would never know.
that still doesnt keep me from evading it...why does everyones "fantastic" fix idea have to be so complicated?
It shouldnt be any more difficult than this:
1) CEO imposes a corp tax of 15%
2) Ratters pay 15% of their bounties as usual.
3) Market Players pay 15% of their sales to the corp tax
Easy as 1-2-3...and you wouldnt run into the "OMG I HAVE ORDERS ON THE MARKET AND THE CEO CHANGED THE TAX TO 100%" because the tax would be paid at the time of the order placement as opposed to after the order is completed (as it is right now with sales tax).

thats the problem. People can avoid the corp tax (if the trading tax was in effect) with an alt, yet a ratter/missioner cannot. It is unbalanced at the very best.
The other idea would be to give the CEO an option to determine a weekly, bi-weekly, monthly, quarterly, or yearly fee to be collected. But i suspect that this idea would fail miserably for various reasons which escape me at this moment.
