Sectors don't need energy credits and have the tendency to get a huge surplus

[Griff Lancer]

Sectors don't have to spend energy credits maintaining an army/fleet so they don't use much of it themselves.
My sector is nearly maxed out while I'm struggling for them, I have them on a 75% tax and I need them to produce energy credits and I keep finding myself giving them hundreds of minerals.
Its stupid, why can't I just take what I need? Wouldn't even mind paying a little bit of influence to get them.

1.5 sectors will pay for their spaceport maintenance so this should help a bit.
