Name one government from the present to ancient times that the government did not tax its citizens and took a slice? I'm not referring to a clan or tribe. Simply put, the government does have a right to some of your fruits sorry to say.
Well, there was NO income tax before the corrupt Federal Reserve came about in 1913.
As for your friend, he is committing fraud and should be very careful. I don't know about you but going to jail for welfare fraud is not high on my list of to-do's.

The burden of proof would be on them, and since I make below minimum wage hourly and live on tips, they would be hard pressed to determine how much I make every night.

I wonder how much you're stealing from your boss. You know what I mean, giving away free drinks to increase your tips.
