Even the illegal underground economy will eventually surface and have to end up paying taxes somewhere...…….. I once saw a story about a tourist that was going to stay in a small hotel in a small Italian town. The tourist puts a hundred bucks on the counter and ask for a room key, but says he wants to check out the room first. The guest takes the key and goes upstairs to view the suite. The hotel owner grabs the hundred and runs out to the bar to pay his tab. The pub owner then pays his one waitress all the back wages he owed her. She comes running to the hotel to pay her room fee, just as the tourist comes down the stairs and says " I'm not staying here after all" grabs his hundred and leaves town. Some how all these people made money and an economy out of no money at all. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gurn Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 Watch for the gas stations to start with " We have to charge this much or there would not be enough markup to actually earn a living, or pay to refine the oil in the first place." 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
