Ship Market

Trade Center
The computerization of trade goes back hundreds of years. Dedicated trading centers take advantage of modern computing power to maximize the efficiency of commerce in their regions. Trade goods direct a planet's industrial resources into the production of consumer goods which produce revenue.
The laws of supply and demand make interplanetary trade extremely lucrative. The Tower of Commerce licenses Heyoun traders, and thus controls and regulates interplanetary trade for the benefit of all Heyoun. The Tower sustains an increased volume of trade on every trade route.
The Heyoun Commerce Authority controls the flow of the Great Material Continuum and ensures that a major part of it goes into the pockets of the Trade Union.

Protectionism
Protectionism saves local commerce from aggressive offers from foreign companies and stabilizes prices. Therefore internal system trade can be made more secure and efficient and the danger of a large decrease in trade is very low. However protectionism is bad for business overall and discourages many apt Heyoun traders to make big business with those systems. Trade routes are closed.

The Resource Cartel provides massive profits for local miners and attracts many competent Heyoun to capture that lucrative market for them. However, local as well as external customers are often displeased with this situation because of the inevitable price increases. Customers are largely dependant on these producers which is why the creation of such cartels is a very powerful means for the state to control production.
