Maybe you have a heavy US centric point of view?
I don't condone tax evasion, but if I can't work because the State wants to go broke before I can even start running my business sorry but no one will do it.

I'm not commenting on whether this particular case of lawbreaking is morally supportable or not. Even if it's 100% morally justified, it's still lawbreaking.
Perhaps it's against the written law, but I think in most countries I am aware of, laws are subject to the judges' interpretation.
