Can a majority get blood out of a stone? <they shall aggregate what they must to extract what they want by any and all rule-by-making-up-rules regime per tyranny of coke-n-pepsi universal suffrage democracy, as they are in the effective majority > The history of opm is that op stop producing the m to be confiscated by the bludgers. If a souvlaki maker accepts only cash [be it US$, euro, $kiwi, yen, yuan], and an apartment renter swaps accommodation for funds in an account in Switzerland and a little local cash for covering costs, the bludgers would find it difficult to collect their tithe. With zirp, keeping money under the mattress is better than keeping it in a bank at 0% or worse [having to pay to keep the money in the bank].

If a tax collector comes calling, they could be given a tax-free souvlaki sandwich to get them as far as their next appointment, as a charitable act of magnanimity. If they stay for a while and make souvlakis for tourists, they could be given 4 extras for their family.
