Now you're talking. Become a moocher and live off other's work. Of course, 
I would lose all self-respect. But what the hell?

[Krimel]
No need to mooch; you just need to lower your standard of living. That is
your free choice. It is also what you expect society at large to do by
lowering taxes and spending. We can live with potholes and illiteracy and
fire and crime and research and pollution and disease. Third world countries
do it all the time. 

[Platt]
Obviously you haven't read about people who refuse to pay taxes and 
barricade themselves in their homes against the imposition of the law. Nor 
have you heard of people thrown in jail for evasion of income tax.  

[Krimel]
Sure I have read about people who freely chose to play the game and cheat
and then violently attempt to avoid the penalties. Cheating does not bring
out the guns, violent resistance to the enforcement of the rules does that.
