The problem is, everything revolves around Trading/Mining, we'll call that T&M.
Trading and Mining is the main method people should make money, for a whole host of reasons.
Without T&M, there would be no pirates pirating the lanes.
Without T&M, there would be no need for Police to enforce the laws of Smuggling etc.
Without T&M, the Militaries wouldn't have the funding to actually fight their wars.
Without T&M, Corporations and groups like the IMG/GMG would die out,
Without T&M, poor groups like the Xenos, Bundschuh etc would not have a reason to exist, they'd die out,
Without T&M, Discovery would not work
Everything revolves around T&M, it is the main lifeforce of Disco. We need Traders to be trading, and miners to be mining, or else there is no reason for anyone to fight any of the petty wars.
There is a reason that Trading and Mining is the main source of income, and important reason, anything else is just Roleplay, get used to it.
If you want to make money, Trade, or Mine. If people make money otherwise, there is no reason to play this stupid game.
