Ahah, i'm from the countryside, I know what you're talking about.
Weirdly, social contribution fraud and income tax fraud ('travail au noir') is present in really big cities (mostly because the cost of getting caught is quite low compared to the margin of construction business in Paris/Lyon), and in rural areas, because no one ever check (it's changing, slowly).

You also helped found Vlc, and probably half of the French startups that exist today. I agree that this is not fair (I do not ask for insurance when I'm in between jobs, because I have the means to ignore it now), but also, it will last two year at most.

I think the main difference is that when I hear my neighbour committing fraud, I think "well why the hell am I not doing that too?", but when I hear about a big company doing it, I don't feel like I could be doing the same. Funny enough, I _did_ recently move to the Netherlands and found myself as the director of both an Irish and a Dutch company at the same time. I briefly looked in to Base Erosion and Profit Shifting (Dutch Sandwich, etc.) but suffice it to say as the only employee of both of these companies I didn't have the scale to make it worth the trouble.
