Compression tax

I understand well enough how compression benefits centralized industry, but other than changing the location that tax is collected for refining I can’t think of anything that compression specifically brings to the table. There could be an abuse loophole here that I’m not seeing and if there is I’d like for someone to point it out for my (and everyone else’s) benefit.

Compression bring a. Very valuable utility to eve Ore and ice And structures right now are. Super risky and costly to keep running for a corp to run a structure and. Have it open to the public for manufacturing and refining are great sources of income they are not passive isk. If anything it a purchase of services but that’s where compressing comes in. compressing ore Can add value to ore a also make the minerals held within transportable in vast quantities

Now is that not a service? How does that benefit the structure owner. A flat isk fee would allow. Corporations to make some isk of of the people who only compress

let’s say you charge 100k for compressing and someone brings in 200k worth of ore that’s. A rip off. But if someone compresses. 3-4 bill worth of ore 100k Might not even make a dent in the value

Yes! It’s nice to hear someone point out what a travesty that was. Eliminating that ISK sink and diverting the flow of wealth to the mega-corporations was a huge mistake .
