[...] Maybe you guys trust in the government to always do what's right [...]
No, I don't... all people make mistakes (intentionally or not). But you do not pay taxes "for the government", you pay taxes for the community. I like living in a relatively save environment with nice infrastructure and medical care. If you don't, then please - again - GTFO!
And yes, I don't trust people who do not pay their taxes. And, further more, in this case it's not even a "private" business as we're actualy talking about a person
doing business...
