Reply #7: All that yes-but-no stuff is in there so people can lie about it [View All]

That's what politicians do. It's in there, but for while, if they feel they need to, they can say "but it isn't really there!" They will say "the fine is only $95!" but knowing the fine will ramp up to 8 times that soon enough. They will say but it's not enforced! knowing that the first one of their kind who gets up in the Senate or House and brays about "this important revenue source that is being crippled by 65% or 70% non-compliance!" will set the whole bunch of them scrambling to close whatever loophole existed AND to raise the fine for 'thumbing your nose at The People's Government!'

Now, have you ever heard of the government imposing a fine on something, and then NEVER EVER collecting that fine from anybody?
Damn right you haven't.

It's all a bunch of lies hatched by professional thieves and con-artists.
