Draft

Many Guilds and Individuals go through great effort to build machines and facilities and allow other Egyptians to use them. This law shall allow them to tax users to help recoup their costs and provide additional future structures. This tax shall be called the "Owner's Tax."

Only the following structures shall be deemed eligible for an Owner's Tax, and are collectively referred to as "Taxable Structures" (or TS for short):
*Apiary
*Automatic Loom
*Brick Machine
*Brick Oven
*Deep Well
*Distaff
*Flax Gin
*Furnace (including Gyration Cell, but excluding Fleet Furnace)
*Limestone Auger
*Mine
*Quarry
*Steam Kiln
*Steam Shovel
*Steam Silt Collector

It is *not* required that owners share Taxable Structures and therefore the default "Tax Status" for all structures will be "Off." To initiate the Tax, the owner must change the Tax Status setting on the TS to "On" and may discontinue the tax at any time by changing the setting back to "Off." If set to "On," the owner may establish (or change) a Tax Rate of 1%-25% of any and all resources produced by the TS.

While the Taxable Structure's Tax Setting is "On," Taxed resources shall set aside in the "Owner's Bin." Meanwhile the rest of the contents of the TS will be placed in the "Public Bin" retrievable by the Public, thereby allowing the user to retrieve their share of what they produce. While the TS' Tax Setting is "Off," resources shall all go to the Owner's Bin. At all times the contents in the Owner's Bin shall be retrievable based on the structure's basic Permission for Use setting (Elder to Initiate or Anyone for guild-owned; and Private or Public for Individually owned) and the Public Bin shall always be retrievable by the Public.

Any time resources are produced in a TS whose Tax Setting is "On", the Tax shall be applied as follows:
*Tax Rate % of the production value (rounded down) shall be placed into the Owner's Bin
*(1 - Tax Rate) (also rounded down) shall be placed in the Public Bin
*Any remaining resources shall then have a chance to go to the Owner's Bin based on the share of the remainder, otherwise they shall go to the Public Bin.
For Example: If a Mine whose Tax Setting is "On" is Taxed at 8% and produces 5 Ore then the Public Bin would get 92% * 5 Ore = 4 Ore guaranteed (rounded down from 4.6) and the Owner's Bin would get 8% * 5 Ore = 0 Ore guaranteed (rounded down from 0.4). Then the remaining Ore unit would have a 0.4 / 1 chance to go to the Owner's Bin. Thus in the long run the true allocations to the Public and the Owner will be very similar to the actual Tax Rate.

All Taxable Structures shall display the Tax Status and Tax Rate (if any) to those interacting with them. If there is a message communicating the production of resources, it will be revised to display the quantities produced to the Owner Bin and those produced to the Public Bin.

Final Note: Because this law is complicated enough, I have decided to '''exclude Raeli Ovens''' since they dig up a tile AND bake a tile. Determination of when to tax and whether the Public choosing to bake would impact the Owner's bin shall be left for an amendment law.

 Any time resources are produced in a SS, they will be unallocated and non-retrievable until a Take action (recommend rewording in game to "Settle Shares and Take") is selected.  At that point:
-*Owner's Share of the total unallocated resources (rounded down) shall be placed into the Owner's Bin
