Why do we need to pay tax to use bazaar?

[Greed]

Why do I need to pay 10% tax to sell something in the middle of nowhere?
In ffxi we only pay tax if we sell something inside the city.
( And pay more if we want to sell something in Jeuno and thanks to that
we have black market outside Jeuno )

So am I the only one who hate to pay 10% tax to sell something in the middle of nowhere?

Griss gets a +1 because he nailed it. In order for a closed economy to not have hyper-inflation is to destroy gil in some way.

Only way to do that is tax on bazaars and repair npc, and synthesis support. Oh and to some lesser extent, favored camps.
