Restaurant Owners Use Zapper To Cook the Books

OK, this burns me up:

Mr. Ainsworth said the United States should at least take up a study of the problem. “The later you get into this game, the more likely criminals have moved on to the next technology,” he said. “This is my tax money. It makes me mad.”

No, Mr. Ainsworth, it's not your money. It's the business owners money that your hired thugs steal for you. And the attitude that you have, believing you should be able to teal as much as you want, anytime you want, from anyone you choose, is what makes me mad.

For mom and pop shops, cooking the books is becoming a high-tech business.
