Old Post Make "no tax" give no benefit, and all other tax levels give negatives

I always turn off taxes because it's a bit balance breaking if you don't use maintenance costs, however, I can't use maintenance costs because of its various issues. I would like to use these taxes though because of the negative effects they bring, but I still want to turn off taxes on some plot types to prevent getting too much income, which feels a bit cheaty.

Here is my suggestion, for all plot types, make taxes give no benefits on no tax and half tax levels. Sim Settlements is already quite easy, its elements need more of a challenge in my opinion. I also think that tax income needs to be reduced, and the resource/happiness debuffs should be increased.

No Tax - No effect.
Half Tax to Double taxes - Increasing negative effects on your settlements.

However, some people may not like these changes, so how about making these changes into a hardcore taxes option in the difficulty settings for SS?
