Tax Affects Growth

Description
This is an opinionated mod which seeks to actually provide some balance to the general tax system.

By default most players choose Very High taxation because it's easy to get away with. There is no incentive to go low tax because it offers little to no benefit despite real world examples of it increasing growth, investment etc.

I don't want to get into real world politics of it, but for those who want low-taxes to actually mean something - and high taxes having repercussions, this mod is for you.

- Low taxation improves trade competitiveness, growth, conversation/assimilation, decreases interest rates on loans.
- High taxation does the opposite

Does it still work with the current version?

tax already has an affect on many aspects of the game and going high is pretty bad for your pops unless they are already pretty high on standard of living since it can lower their growth by increasing death rate and will lower number of things they buy.

@[82ADr] H3llb0und. Great mod! By the way, I created a mod that also deals with taxation effects, but from a different frame of reference. Yours have what mine is lacking, and probably you will find some of my ideals useful as well. I was thinking it will be good if we join forces and collaborate. If you are interested, accept my friend request and let us brainstorm.

Hi Calvin and Erkli. I have amended the mod taking in both of your recommendations. Hopefully now it's more balanced and provides more depth to gameplay. I also added in some buffs/debuffs for migration and pop growth.

I like the mod, however, I think the difference between the values are a bit much (or are too high/too low). Like assimilation and conversation for low taxes could be around 5% or so...

Could you make it so that it increases aristocrat and capitalist investment pool contribution? Instead of abstraction to "growth" you can literally increase investment by increasing the contribution to investment pool.

Thanks for the mod
