If in addition you are in a business that is not popular so much the better. Recall don't tax you, don't tax me, tax the man behind the tree. Its also why I believe it was Willie Sutton said he robed banks, because that was where the money is. People would rather see the bad guys punished with taxes than have theirs raised directly. This is the way it is.
