That's not my claim. I am not saying audits result from that.
I am saying, that the fact that my business model was disruptive in nature(show people how to do repairs that our industry has tried to keep secret for a long time) combined with the legislative efforts means it would be stupid for me to do something like cheat my taxes. It's incredibly low hanging fruit if you actually have enemies.
A competitor's business 10 years ago asked if I would close for $80,000, and implied he'd be reporting me to state collections agencies if I didn't take the offer. I laughed, and he said this was being cocky. "I pay people on the books, unlike you. and then I rattled off the names of 3 people he was paying off the books.. and he shut up.
