Why would a common person want to help their fellow citizen evade taxes?

Because I don't think someone waiting tables should have to sacrifice a chunk of their income to fund the American military-industrial complex.
Is it specifically people that wait tables, or do you support no taxes for all for their first $x in income?
The latter.

If tax evasion were not incredibly common among the wealthy, and if fewer of our tax dollars were used to create war, subsidize big business, etc., I'd be less inclined to feel this way.
