    No. Why would they do that? There’s no money there. Poor people are on the hook for hardly any tax anyway. The people who cheat generally own companies or are self employed and often have access to cash. It happens a lot in small businesses. It’s a crime of opportunity. Hard to do it when tax is already deducted from your check before you get it. Easy when you can put yourself on the books for a modest salary and pocket a bunch of cash under the table.
