This is kind of like software piracy where companies buy one copy and install it on a bunch of computers. You fire an IT guy that maintains this stuff and he drops a dime to the Business Software Alliance and they start an investigation and find out that you’re using hundreds of thousands in software that you didn’t pay for.

I guess it does exist on both sides with employers and employees.

There are areas in our lives where I actively avoid easy income so that I won’t have to deal with the reporting issues.

We’ve never been in the position of having to make these kinds of decisions. Our son and daughter have been hired as independent contractors but those were for internships and they were quite worthwhile (they would have been worthwhile even if unpaid).
