Your reply is anti-knowledge and completely non-logical. I can't imagine it working even in an utopistic world that doesn't exist. Just to be clear: that's not how economics work. Not in the real world and not in a videogame.
You're asking to spawn money into the economy while decreasing the prices of everything but the prices will raise naturally overtime to meet our purchase power.
1. If we earn more money, more people can afford certain things, decreasing the currency's purchase power
2. If you decrease burgershot prices, the employees will make shit money and no one will work there. If you pay them with magically spawned money you increase inflation at a slow rate but faster than you are right now.
3. Decreasing the prices will make business owners adapt the prices to the current economy so they will eventually be the same or higher to match the currency's purchase power.
4. I got nothing against that. The clothing stores are 100% controlled by the government so decreasing the prices of some items (t-shirts for example) while increasing the prices of jewelry would be beneficial.
5. These aren't items that are vital for the economy so this will obviously make their prices decrease and meet the purchase power.
6. You are again asking to spawn/print money into the economy. The money from those who pay tolls go to the player. If you are asking for extra money spawned out of the blue for the toll worker you are just printing money mindlessly like Germany in the 40s.
7. Less expenses = more money. If everyone has more money, prices increase. Basics of inflation. Higher taxes for all citizens fight inflation, not the opposite.
8. You are right about some gas stations not making any money but that's not how you should fight the problem. The businesses should have to pay different licensing fees based on the areas where they are located instead of fixed fees for everyone.
9. Never saying no to "exciting" stuff
I hope your list does not go on..
I'd much rather keep everything how it is right now instead of runing it even further.
In case I wasn't clear enough, if we all earn more money and have less expenses, our spare capital at the end of the day/week/month is higher. If everyone has more money to spend on items that aren't necessities, those items that aren't necessities (such as properties) will cost a lot more because more people can afford them; basic supply and demand.
You're basically gonna have a completely broken economy compared to what we have now with the price of items or cars reduced to nothing while others will be x10 the current price and a lower purchase power.
I can go on all day and explain why's and becauses. I have a firm knowledge of economics and there's a reason why countries and central banks have issues with inflation. I doubt random eclipsians have more experience than them.
I suggest you read something before you come here and speak your mind when all you do is live the economy while you have no clue how things work.
In a real world a car's price is determined by:
costs (salaries of workers, raw materials, patents, expenses, etc),
supply (the amount of items/time factories require to turn raw materials into the item that is ready to be used by the consumer)
demand (the amount of items/time that is requested by the public)
If you somehow manage to somehow crash the costs barrier, the price of your item will be mostly determined by the supply and demand. If supply is not a problem and you have demand, the item will make you a lot of money as an enterprise but prices on the 2nd hand market are going to be low (just like for most cheap cars such as ford/vw which are produced in large quantity). If you buy a new car with 0 km from the dealership, it will be worth half of the price you paid in 1 year. All this does not apply to the luxury market since initially the supply meets or exceeds the demands but when the production of a vehicle stops, the demand stays quite high for years or even multiplies the value of certain rare vehicles.
Eclipse isn't the real world with a real economy. The costs are nothing but a set value that we call import price. If the import price is lowered to accomodate us, the prices of all the other items will increase. We will always need food and water so their prices will be increased by business owners to make more money and meet supply & demand. What you will have as a result (after months) will be an economy where we earn a lot of currency but our pruchasing power will be lower than before. Most goods will cost more because everyone makes more money and expenses are lower (for us but mostly for business owners) while assets that have been untouched will see their prices skyrocket because everyone would be able to afford them if there was enough supply, but there isn't.
