What really costs the country

I really need to get this off my chest. Here's why am I so angry: I go and take $50 out of an ATM. I drive to various bakery, dairy, takeaways, other outlets even at a gas station. Usually I take note of what happens when the amount that gets run up on the till, or if the till even gets opened. This afternoon, I was in a dairy and I was 5th in line and all of us paid in cash. It was roughly $53 cash spent in 15 minutes and not once did I see an amount rung up on the till. So Mr Taxman. I'd appreciate it if you could add up how many millions of dollars these places are costing the country every year in unpaid taxes. Yeah right.
