Pilots with your attitude (and there are plenty) are one of the many reasons I still enjoy playing EvE. Mainly because when I blow up your ship I get that lovely feeling that I took your lunch money-for real  .
1 fully fitted nano-Ishtar - 15 bucks
Ability to PVP without bothering about grind and mock leet kids in local for wasting their life on a PC game - priceless  |

Ability to rob someone's 15 buck ship and fund off the next Hurricane off it + mock ISK buyers for wasting their $ on a PC game - priceless.
There is no way NOT TO waste $ on EVE game - unless...

I could preety much afford to stop paying real life money for EvE and play using GTCs. I in fact quite like the idea.
Which brings you to the Dark Side, Luke :)))
Who is better
a person, who funds 2 characters and earns ISK through grinding missions with one of them,
OR
a person, who funds 1 char, and spends 1 GTC a month to fund his PVP (and spends two times less time playing internet space ships = spends twice more time with his GF :))) )
P.S. Too bad I am don't need to buy ISK through GTC :(
I would've done it just for the fun of mocking leet kids :)

RMT is not a dirty word, it's not "bad by definition".
It is, as opposed to GTC-to-ISK!
ATM
If one can make infinity of ISKs.
He can get 10 accounts active and spend 23/7 playing them.
He can get his entire village to play EVE for free.
He can't profit in RL more than that.
THUS he has no incentive to farm that infinity of ISKs. (23/7 sweatshops you mentioned)
IF RMT is allowed,
The one who can get infinity of ISKs can exchange them for Infinity/exchange rate of ISK-to-USD dollars.
RL dollars, which buy you food, beer and pay for your rent.
This IS incentive to farm you heart out.
So - yes, RMT IS bad by definition.

My mistake...I thought you were implying extra RL cash on top of the sub fee. And ebay currently has the Ishtar at around $10 anyway (check it out...it's funny...and lots of satisfied customers apparently).
I was refering to exactly that - 15 bucks for GTC -> sell GTC -> buy yourself an Ishtar with Polys.
Haven't done it myself - but given that I pay for my leasure anyway (through subscription fee), paying some more money for some more fun does not seems to be much different from what I do now :)

**EDIT**I would LOVE to hear the CSM candidates EACH put forward thier respective thoughts on this sort of thing  .
/signed. This would give us a better understanding of their mental framework than dozen of "I will tell CCP to boost Gallente if I get elected" threads.

...KpYTeHb...
This names is written in Russian, using Latin alphabet. It's like substituting "e" with "3" in leet language.
Literally means "tough guy" in Russian.
If something doesn't make sense to you - may be it's just you...

I can't see anyone loosing out on this, except the RMT ISK farmer (and he can go f... himself)...
There is another category, that loses from this:
The leet Kid, who thinks that inability to grind should make Rich Player inferior to Poor Player who is able to grind.
But, I think he should do the same thing as the RMT ISK farmer
