HIGH-CLASS THEFT! Lying on income tax returns and saving millions of dollars. LOW-CLASS THEFT. Switching pricetags. The diff?

They're both low-down bums. The only difference is SCALE. The bigger the scale the bigger the scumbum?

    Theft is theft; whether you're stealing from the government or from Walmart.

    People don't see lying on their taxes as theft.  After all, it was their money to start with.  Why should the government get it?  
    Likewise, people don't see switching tags on a product as stealing; after all they are paying for the item.  

    This is how people justify their actions.  We call it theft, they call it being smart.  And the ironic part... the ones switching tags in stores are usually  wealthy.  Of course , they don't seem to comprehend that their actions are hurting others - less taxes = less government programs/services; store theft = higher prices.  Not their problem.
