Lol, I fail at life because I didn't recognize a name in Norse Mythology?  Without being all knowing in Norse Mythology, one might assume that you just mashed the keyboard... a common practice among Chinese sweatshop farmers.
You fail at life because instead of apologizing and admitting you are wrong and blamed an innocent player, you try to sneak and rationalize it away.

My Take:
1) NPC Corp pilots pay a tax to the NPC Corp for Ratting / Missioning ( Say 10 to 15% ) ( Another Money Sink)
That's silly.
Not only it penalizes normal players with an abusive tax, but also has no effect on macro corps which you obviously haven't heard about. Those that set corp tax to 100% (presumably so that nobody steals money from the boss), and vanish instantaneously after being decced.

2) Standing towards NPC corps / faction should be positively affected by making sales at their stations, and negatively affected with by sales with their competitors PROVIDED you are in a player corp.
If you want standings grind for them. And that's for another topic.

My point here was to provide a motivation for pilots to leave NPC corps and join player corps.
What for?
You could also say that your player corp tax gives them more value that the isks they pay in tax (due to economies of scale, shared facilites or whatever), and that by not paying taxes (and being in a noob corp) they are profiting less.

As far as I know the only way to get standing with a NPC corp is missioning / rating - miners and traders have little options.
Mining missions and couriers.

quite alot of PC corps have 10%-15% tax rate and as you are working for the NPC corp it would make sense if they got some of your money.
It would make no sense given they are providing nothing in return.

I say, if you can't use it on a trail account then you can't use it in an NPC corp... sounds fair?
What's the purpose? macro miners would just join fhsdgsdfjksdgfs corp. You achieve absolutely nothing by doing this but to bother actual legit players.
But then you'd be able to wardec fhsdgsdfjksdgfs... which is the whole point.
Then your point fails because macro farmers operate without roles so the second the wardec hits they hit the leave corp button and proceed to join fhsdgsdfjksdgfs B. You dec that one, hey leave for C. You dec that one they leave for D. And that point you are screwed because you can't have A, B, C and D deced so they'll hop around depending on the dec flavour of the day.

if people don't want to be wardecced they can change corp, and if they are industrialists, they won't have the combat skills to defend themselves immediately, so you're just being selfish and wanting more targets that can't shoot back. This is not a legitimate reason.
And the same way I say getting people out of npc corps doesn't do a lot wardec wise given the brokenness of the system, I say that people staying in the noob corp to be "safe" flying their freighter are abusing the system. I'm sure they'll get suicided somewhere along the line tho.
