Your screwed. Leave the country And wait for the laws to revert back to standard laws.

Or sell your ships.

Dont pay taxes and pay someone to lower your hostility when it reaches 60. That way, you stay in the nation

oh and stop the "PLEASE HELP" threads, quite annoying

Bit unfair, Astragek : its posted in the 'Help' thread and asks for help : I reckon we have all made similar kinds of booboos in our time here by failing to think things thru fully before acting : if nothing else, it acts as a warning : mess with the laws, and they will mess with you.

The main bugbear with this kind of mistake is that trying to fix it brings in others nuisances : Like the absolute majority clause for a revision within 30 days of the last. So, before trying that, make sure you can meet that provision, or you just lose the vote and reset that damn 30 day clock again.

My advice, its quicker and easier to reset your stipends laws to give back the ship tax while you let the cool=-down 30 days pass, then you can fix the issue with a correct law revision thats easy to pass ; then reset your stipends laws and all is resolved.

Does some of the gold disapear while paying taxes or does it all make it to the treasury

[Most Lee Harmless]

Ship taxes go direct to treasury : stipends do lose a little on the way back as 'corruption' fees, as do pay-outs.

But, by mixing pay-outs and stipends you can cover the high ship tax until its possible to re-do the ship tax laws : a slight loss to 'corruption' fees is a small price to pay and a damn sight cheaper than being sent pirate for debt and having to re-rank later..
