Really - no one?  Work under the table selling prescription pills, weed, selling stolen loot out of their car, lawn care, babysitting, etc..  If there is no documentation of work, they are considered unemployed.  You can make as much money as you want under the table and still get assisted housing, stamps, and more.  [b]Most new developments have to set aside about 10-15% low income housing. [/b] The apartments are very nice.  Stripped of all the upgrades yes, but still new.  [/quote]

That's in Montgomery County -- it's a county program. It's the Moderately-Priced Dwelling Unit (MPDU) program. If you're poor, you don't qualify for it.

And again -- I'm putting it in all caps to stand out -- MOST POOR FAMILIES DO NOT GET HOUSING ASSISTANCE.

Now, if the argument is that it's possible to have undeclared income -- well, that goes for everybody, doesn't it? [b]Rich, middle-class, and poor. I've paid plenty of middle-class people in cash. I haven't asked whether they declare the income.

DP and this is OT, but who are you paying in cash??  Maybe an occasional babysitter, I guess?  Daycare and aftercare have a Tax ID number so it's all above board.  Our lawn service has an online system.  Our friends who have nannies use an online Nanny Pay system.

If you work for the government or a contractor I always thought you could get in trouble for paying under the table.  Do people really do that?[/quote]
