Capitalists in colonies

[Extreme Unction]

So I'm working my way through southern Africa, and I've conquered some of the African nations. Yay Imperialism! And I've converted some of the tribesmen to Capitalists to get the economy going there.

And...they're not. My Capitalists back home are having no trouble at all generating cash to build factories and railroads, but at the same level of taxation and tariffs, my African Capitalists can't save any money.

I have lowered taxes on the Rich to the point where I'm only making 1 money per day, and still the African Capitalists can't save up any dough.

How can I fix this?

You can't. People in colonies get much less income. And even if you could fix that, there's not much use, because capitalists in colonies aren't allowed to build factories (I'm not sure if they even build rail).

non-national POPs only receive half the income their national culture counterparts do. It's true for farmers/labourers as it is for capis.

and keep in mind that factories can not be built in colonies, only states. So capis in colonies in Revolutions will be firing a lot of blanks if their reserves do reach a level where they can build factories.
