Legality isn't the standard of behavior; it's just a minimum. Someone once said right here on HN: "Never forget, the holocaust was legal, slavery was legal, segregation was legal. If you use the state as a metric for ethics you'll end up disappointed." (It was so good, I wrote it down.) This behavior isn't mass murder or oppression, but failing to pay your share of your communities/nation's bills - which puts more burden on your neighbors / fellow citizens - isn't acceptable to me. 'I can get away with it in court' isn't a good excuse. |
