Why is it okay for the owner to do this, but not an employee? Why is it okay if you have just one shop rather than a chain?

- ingenuous2 9y agoFor the latter, because that indicates a criminal enterprise. The idea of a coordinated group of people all breaking the law is deemed worse than one individual. I can reconcile this with my own values. Practically, an enterprise of criminals is more likely to be effective, and thus would create more negative costs. Legally, it allows prosecution of the organizers of a crime group, who are likely the most dangerous and more difficult to catch in the act, as they contract others to do their work.
