I agree. If anything we should be given the ablility to tag on a tax to the clone center as well.

Also, if you set the tax to something different then 100cr, it gets reset to 100cr each server reset (it seems).

Our city is on Dantooine... near the crystal caves. Here is an example of the situation.


We currently have a 100c tax on the shuttle. This brings the total one way cost of travel to our city to 400c. If you fly into one of the StarPorts and purchase a ticket to our city we get ZERO credits to the city, even though the ticket price is 400c. The ENTIRE 400c price goes to the black-hole.


The only time the 100c tax works is when people depart from our city. Very sh***y.



Secondly: Why does the cloning center not give any of its revenue to the city? As a city our weekly cost is upwards of 200k. If we did property tax only that's approximately 135% tax (75% being the limit?). If we do sales tax only that's about 20% (not gonna happen)... If we do travel cost... that's 800c tax per ticket (then we'd probably drive people away). So lets mix these: 250c travel, 10% sales, 75% property. That's just outrageous.


I propose that at least half of the cloning and insurance cost be given to the city. I also propose that ASAP the travel tax problem be fixed.


Thanks.
