POP income is the money the POP makes from either working for the government, or from selling their stuff on the market. Yes, subsidizing a factory will allow them to still pay their workers even if they can't sell anything they make.
There's a floor on the price of goods, so your POPs should at least be able to make some money. You can't directly subsidize them, though you can always make factories that use the good in question.
Yes, taxation decreases income. If it didn't, then there would be no reason to have a slider as the only sensible option would be "as high as my ruling party allows".
