The Sims don't notice that you're robbing them blind. As of version 1.1 of SimCity, you can no longer do this. SIMULATION ENHANCEMENTS SIMCITY MACINTOSH VERSION 1.1 "*Banzai Taxation (turning the tax rate up to 20% in December and down to 0% in January to rake in bucks and fool the voters) has been eliminated. The tax rate used is the average over the year. It is still possible to cheat on your taxes, but we won't tell you how." -from the note enclosed with version 1.1 of SimCity R. Scott V.
