[QUOTE="bacha29, post: 5308738, member: 58386"] The American Medical Association, their peers, the certification boards and the state that granted them a license do not consider them to be "Scabs or Butchers". Now my county publishes every week a very very long list of absconders who have bench warrants out on them for non payment of child support. Determining how much they owe based on their income is not easy to establish when they by design don't hold jobs especially those that are required to be reported under FICA. They work under the table for cash so they can report zero income. And the cost of the manpower to send field agents to simply go out and find them is substantial. And what are you going to do with them even if you do find them? Throwing them in jail? That's still not going to get the money out of them. Do I endorse this kind of socially irresponsible behavior? Definitely not!. But effective deterrents are nowhere near as simple and plentiful as some of you believe. [/QUOTE]
