Taxation WITHOUT Representation
In some situations, this can pose a problem, however it is now being celebrated and hailed throughout all Alliance of Mercenary Consortiums controlled territories. In a landmark accord reached between AMC and Trade Federation, this vast source of revenue will now be available for collection for the betterment of The Consortium.
For years, this revenue was unavailable for collection. After an analysis by High Chamberlain Timi Forepacca who heads AMC's Department of the Interior through AMC-Trading, it was determined that with the proper infrastructure and collection systems in place, AMC could indeed tap into that unclaimed wealth. After hearing the proposal, the Triumvirate Council set about finding the right partner to set this plan into action. Naturally, they looked to the Trade Federation who not only leads the Neutral Block of Galactic Powers but also has a well established bureaucracy. Their tax collection bureaucrats could provide guidance and consultation as well as aid in the actual tax collection process as they are very well versed in this activity as it is conducted routinely across the hundreds of worlds under Trade Federation's banner.
Under this agreement, Trade Federation will collect all generated taxes across all of AMC's worlds and then they will return 100% of those proceeds back to AMC. They shall have no representation, nor power, in any of AMC's sovereign territories. While this agreement will certainly strengthen the bond between AMC and Trade Federation, neither will be beholden to the other in any way more than we already are through our formal Embassy and through the existence of our ratified Non-Aggression Pact.
As the popular saying throughout the Galaxy goes, "there are no certainties in life other than death and taxes!" This now holds true for AMC and AMC will be stronger for it!
