Interesting Dilemma

The entire point of punishing someone for breaking the law is to encourage people to obey the law and follow the rules.

When the government decides that following those rules made you too successful, and punishes you for that success, where is the incentive to follow those rules in the first place? Especially since the success garnered by breaking the law is by and large untaxed.
