Nobody thinks it's so cute when the tables are turned on them and they are cheated some way. But cheating big companies or the government seems to be acceptable somehow. And speeding? Everybody does it. And it's funny to some to think of sneaking and doing it unless it's your precious kid, innocent dog or husband the speeder runs down because they can't stop in time. But when you cheat a big company, you are cheating all those people working for it, cheat the government - you cheat each of us. And I don't think any of the people sneaking dogs on planes would want their own company that writes their paycheck cheated on, as it's ultimately just taking money or bene's out of their pockets. I used to take my own snacks into the movie theater a time or two until it dawned on me I was stealing from them by not buying their snacks! Even at $6.99, and though it grates like heck to do it, I've got to buy their overpriced popcorn rather than bring in my own baked Lays in a baggie!
