How about the reintroduction of the Tax Slider?

I'd really like the return of the tax slider in ES2. 

It is a powerful tool used to mitigate the penalties in happiness due to over-expansion or overpopulation. 

Especially now that elections can also easily kill the happiness of your people, a countermeasure of lowering taxes or even the option to exempt a colony from tax altogether (like in Total War), is in order IMHO. 


Thoughts?

We tried to remove it, and to replace them by the laws. putting it them back in, would be quite a huge change.

Following this, but not voting- Mostly because I'm really not sure where I stand on this.


While it could be useful, I don't know if it'll actually add more depth- And micro-managing the taxes for different systems doesn't sound fun.

It's not that taxing (no pun intended) really. It is a simple mechanism that is frequently introduced in 4X games, most notably in the first ES game and Master of Orion 2.

As for the second option of excluding systems from taxes, this was introduced in the Total War series and these games are not known for tedious city micromanagement.
