I agree that this isn't the consumer's problem, but I don't agree government policy or taxes incentivize anything but fraud. Do we really need even more government contractors?
- samtho 4y agoTaxes are basically a shortcut to adjusting market forces to result in a more desirable behavior. Fraud is possible only if the incentive is poorly aligned with the result, allowing people to take advantage of an alternate, but easier, action to benefit from the program. Lawmakers who give in to the demands of special interests will inevitably create these loopholes, it does not happen in a vacuum.
