> Wealthy individuals and companies (aka those with most of the money) have a vested interest in having their transactions not easily tracked by the government. Many may think or assert that, especially based on the trendy anti-government dogma, but I disagree. They have a vested interest in a fair and enforced taxation system. Otherwise they lose effective government and its services, both of which are absolutely essential to their safety and prosperity.
