It’s the first time we’ve ever broken the law doing business but everyone here is often working for cash now. Our car mechanic is also. The government is forcing it on us.
Was that in Atlas Shrugged? Make everything illegal so you can be arrested for any cause?

“We want them broken. We’re after power and we mean it. There’s no way to rule innocent men. The only power any government has is the power to crack down on criminals. Well, when there aren’t enough criminals, one makes them. One declares so many things to be a crime that it becomes impossible for men to live without breaking lawsnow, that’s the system, Mr. Rearden, that’s the game."

-- Dr. Floyd Ferris
