This part is particularly worrying in light of Tom's insistence that  
the gold levels we had enjoyed in the past were anomalous, and that  
we should be getting used to the (largely) reduced levels we are  
seeing now.

I understand the need to have limits, and discourage profligate  
taxation; however, the situation before was hardly profligate in the  
vast majority of cases...

In short, when you can't safely run a tax rate higher than 10-12% in  
regions in the Capital perimeter, *and* you're losing gold into the  
aether from the realm share, it really makes for a hard adjustment,  
especially for realms trying to survive an double invasion--one of  
monsters, undead, and daimons, and another invasion of bugs!

It's been getting very discouraging lately...
