[QUOTE="wkmac, post: 892230, member: 2189"] Did you ever consider that the small companies doing things under the table are doing so because the Big and Rich [SIZE=1](oh boy wait for it!) [/SIZE]have used their access to write regulatory and tax law so as to impede competition from rising up and threatening their market dominance? Raising the entry costs for upstart market players is a form of protectionism that they enjoy thanks to K Street and State privilege. A non-interventionist state in the marketplace where winners and losers are in fact allowed to be winners and losers (no such thing as too big to fail) would in itself reduce cheating if that's what you want to call it. I welcome it and more of it and in fact I advocate it because it keeps more money to circulate in the private economy rather than going to Washington and then only getting passed out to the privileged business interests. If I find a business person who takes cash off the books and he/she can pass a savings off to me as well by removing a rent seeker out of the process, you damn right I'm all over it. You scream for Washington to fix the economy and they won't so man up and start fixing it yourself. [/QUOTE]
