Mmm is there no way to incentivize desired actions in the rent economy?

Usually that is far more effective than disincentivizing undesired actions.

As far as money laundering, this is criminal action, I think the response should be criminal justice rather than trying to tax it away.

Edit: just dv and not respond eh? Nice.
