There already is an income tax in DUST. It is up to your corporation how much to charge.
that's not away from the economy and the circulation. OP's talking about isk sinks which make isk disappear.

OCCUPY JITA Hippie! We have trickle down JITAnomics in this game and it works just fine. Why, in FW and PC you get the very equipment your rich enemies were using against you. Sure, that red dot was using a full proto fit. Just pull yourself up by your bootstraps and shoot him in the face. Then wait for the random equipment distributor to give you some of his stuff. A rising tide lifts all spaceships, donchaknow. Nice Sarah Palin lol

When Dust has peer2peer marketplace I expect most of the buy/sell orders to be inserted by CCP themselves.
While I expect your Dust prediction to be true, your claim about Eve NPC market orders covering everything is very incorrect.

There are probably only a handful of people in eve that could afford to lose Titans in eve like people lose protosuits in DUST. Even then that would bleed them dry pretty quickly. Even the top 1% of eve players.
In EVE 90% of the vets still have to manage incomes. In dust we have players that have ground out hundreds of millions of isk through regular pub battles. That's fair. That's enough to run proto a lot if they so chose but it will run out eventually. The main problem is the money PC has brought in. Those corps CAN run and lose proto with absolutely no regard.
I don't know how to make the system better but I do know if and when we get eve industry in dust - price and demand will set the prices and the way people burn through proto suits at the minute, they will be millions if not 10`s of millions each proto suit after a few months. Then when no regular pub player can really afford them the tears will flow.
Is that possibly the end goal!? Make it so PC is the only source of income rich enough to fund proto? |

This is usual bullshit spewed by ignorant players.
Eve NPC buy and sell orders largely only exist for random junk that doesnt have a use in game(currently). Sometimes new items are seeded temporally in order to get the market off the ground as the game has progressed more items have been taken off of the seeding list and found their way to being player made.
Theres only a handful of items even usable that are still seeded namely Planetary Command Centers which are used to start a PI operation on a planet.
Closest thing to seeded items are item turn ins where you trade an item, money, and lp in to get the faction equivalent. (no idea why dust didn't implement yet) |

The real issue seems to come from PC matches where some people are literally making 80 million a day. I mean if you make 80m a day, you could die like 40 times a day in full proto gear (at 200,000 each) and still make ISK from your matches. So yes, there is a problem with ISK, but it stems from PC matches, not from regular play. |

It is to easy to gain ISK at the moment, PC is such a giant ISK faucet with no where to really dump the ISK.

Theres quite a few people that toss titans isk around for lulz. You just don't associate with them. Managing isk is for baddies who cant grasp the game mechanics. You just don't associate with them because they don't hang around the vocal pubs. (My former eve alliance when playing had several players who could personally financed the recent 7.5 trillion isk losses in the last great space battle personally. |

In the beginning it does kind of suck. I like to restock as much as possible on my higher tier stuff (which is not high at all), but it's quickly avoidable to suffering losing ISK by just using the Noob Fit.

Yes, I was meaning wealth management and redistribution. You are correct on the supply/demand part.
They need to open up player trading and let us blow our money for a while or the gap will be too large to over come.
