>Your argument appears to be that lighter tax evasion shouldn't be prosecuted as long as there are heavy tax evaders that haven't been prosecuted. I think the argument is more along the lines of: "Something is wrong if the police spend zero or minimal effort investigating major burglaries (when they have the resources to do so, as evidenced by their investigations into lesser burglaries). This lack of investigation incentivizes major burglaries by those who have the means to do."
