Taxes! Taxes!! Taxes!!!

Hey guys, so everyone on eRep likes to buy and resell items for some extra cash, right? So do I, and I used to make a lot of my money on moving tickets.
Everyday I would make about a good $25 which isn't a lot of money but for someone just starting off it really helped with completing my D.O. but when the taxes raised I could not make any money on them any more.

It seemed like since we were getting them for free (from the Weekly Challenge) the government thought, hey we are giving them away for free so we can raise taxes on them as much as we want.
The raised taxes hurt my businesses as well as many of my friends who were newer citizens but thankfully for C4's commune jobs I am doing ok now but many newer citizens who don't know better and are being supported by their sales will find that they can't complete their daily orders without going broke.

The government really does not need that much money, Just look at their minimum required currency needed for their military, thousands of dollars wasted, yeah they do provide some combat order money for other country's but they could lower taxes a little to make it easier for newer players.
