    Sure, if you’re getting paid cash with no 1099 and no w2, you can get away with it. Most people, not so much.

      In very few lines of work is getting paid cash going to get you the inome that would trigger DOJ Tax Evasion profiling. The only one I can think of is extra-legal. Drugs. It’s drugs.
