They are also unlikely to file income tax forms, or bother with anything else like that, either.

You go to fine them, they’ll pull out a couple a raggedy singles from the pocket of their jeans.

It’s not called a fine any longer. Justice Roberts and company re-imagined the law to be a “TAX” without requiring a re-write — in effect, legislating from the bench.

Truer than you know, because I work in finance I usually end up helping family and friends do their taxes during tax season. A friend of mine asked if I would help his twenty-something daughter and son-in-law. When they came over, it was obvious that they were the low-information Obama voter type, who didn't care about anything to do with money or taxes except how big a refund they were getting. Well as it turns out, they made slightly too much and had nothing withheld so they ended up owing money. As soon as I told them, they got up and said "forget it then, just throw it away." When I patiently tried to explain that they law said they had to file, they looked at me like I was crazy and said "Why in the world would we file if it means we have to PAY money?!?"
