Instead of taxing people more why doesn't the government go after businesses that deal in "cash only"?

Because if we can brainwash the people to believe that success comes from government then the power of government increases. We let them teach our children these lessons and then wonder why they vote for socialists.

Because there are too few of them and they're all small.

If they can tax everybody in America no business is too small. All these " so called" small businesses are costing this country billions of dollars.

Because those businesses will send jobs over to other countries and people like you will be the ones affected by it. Not only would you pay more and higher taxes, less products would come to America because of tariffs. People in other countries work for less money and don't complain about that fact. And finally, Americas economy will collapse because consumers are not buying things because businesses are not here, and do not send their products over.

Corporations that send jobs overseas aren't cash only. They're big corporations too big to slide under any government wire. Small business is too small to do that.

Why do we want to punish success? All that does is make people and businesses want to be less than mediocre.

Corporations that don't pay taxes are punishing the government that chartered them. Sorry, but you're totally wrong.

It's not punishing success. Honestly...how many cash businesses cheat on their taxes. We pay taxes on buying their products and they don't claim this. It's double dipping. Making money off of us and taking this money and pocketing it for financial gain. Billions are lost by businesses doing this practice.
