Proposal: The Problem With Money

Cannot be Enacted without CoV (2-6 with 12 Corporations)
Failed by Hix

Add a new rule called “Taxation” with the following text:

At any time, any Corporation may make a post to the blog entitled “Tax Day” and proceed to Collect Taxes.  To do so, they must deduct 20% of the Cash belonging to each Corporation with a positive amount of Cash, rounded down.  90% of the Cash so collected, rounded up, is added to the Government’s Cash; the Corporation Collecting Taxes may keep 10% of that total, rounded down, for themselves.

No Corporation may Collect Taxes if Tax has been Collected in the past 48 hours.  No Corporation may Collect Taxes if they were the last Corporation to do so.

An interesting idea, but I’m not sure if a 10% commission is such a great thing.  With this rule in action people would just be sitting in front of a timer waiting for 48 hours to be up so that they could get their turn at the free money.  Plus, in most cases, the 10% commission will be greater than the 20% tax, but I suppose that’s the point.
