While P2P may reduce the value of land near teleports, it may increase the value of land that is distant from teleports.

If owners of land near teleports should be compensated for losses due to P2P, shouldn't the Rest Of Us be taxed for our gains?

Yeah, I find it odd that the Anshe's aren't talking about that.

Their island and general land values could go up quite a bit.

H owever, some people have invested in telehub solely, so they might be a tad screwed.

Thus the reason why diversification is so important for the success of any business.
