Hidden Economy

      The hidden economy is a group of workers who can not find a full-time employment job.  The people in the hidden economy are paid cash for doing certain tasks without the knowledge of the government.  Such jobs that fall under this category one day construction workers, hiring illegal immigrants, and housekeepers. Aside from the government not getting taxes from these workers, they do provide a good position in the economy.  These workers don't get many hours, but they take as many as they can because most have families that they need to provide for.  All workers in the hidden economy do not pay taxes for their jobs because it is done under the tables, which is very convenient for these people seeing as they don't make enough money with their hours anyways.
      Some may say (and by that, I mean other people's blogs) that the government raises taxes for workers  in the actual economy because of the money that the gov. loses from the hidden economy not having to play taxes.  Hidden economy workers also do not receive social security or health benefits for their jobs, also denting the economy.  The hidden economy is said to also lead to drug use, but to each their own.
