another is run away
Discussion
To where?
to somewhere a less almighty government that is less dangerous is in charge of the extortion and looting, usually means more corruption but also less energy going into things like monitoring your off the record income
But your quality of life can't be good in such a place.
I live in such a place and my quality of life is fantastic.
And when there's money to be made, even a less almighly government will come around tracking your wealth.
if you have enough wealth for a corrupt second/third world government to care about you have other ways to deal with this problem
the scenario i'm hypothesizing about is that of the lower-to-middle wealth range
also, another aspect of "run away" is "from the city" where the government forces are concentrated and more likely to find you
out in the country, people don't tend to be so fond of the tax man, and the police tend to be more focused on securing their fellow citizens from crime
or at least, looking like they are
