[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have never heard of a crime BY the flower sellers - there was an awful news report about a woman selling flowers who was grabbed and abducted in Silver Spring while in the road selling flowers. I don't know what happened to her

Sure.....tax dodging is a victimless crime. Let's all not pay taxes on any money earned. If they're allowed to break the law and start unlicensed businesses wherever and whenever they feel like it then why doesn't everyone else do the same and get held to the same standards?  Let's just start cookie, fruit, and other stands in the middle of intersections and block traffic whenever we feel like it?  No wonder this country is going to crap. No one obeys the laws anymore and we allow too much flexibility whenever people think a law shouldn't apply to them.[/quote]

This might be hard to comprehend with a feeble mind like yours, but maybe tax dodging by rich or under the table cash workers are BOTH bad at the same time.

You can’t even accurately measure how much in tax revenue is stolen from the govt by under the table cash workers because the perpetrators are a black market of labor and businesses that aren’t registered with anyone nor have and identifications or permits. [/quote]

Q: Should we go after the people who owe millions and millions of dollars, or the people who owe tens of dollars?
A: Definitely the people who owe tens of dollars![/quote]
