Those augmented (or not penalized perceptually or otherwise) by a voluntary / involuntary collaboration with a peccant violation (by example compelled compliance, victimless crimes, government licensing, state sponsored larceny, proliferation of funny money, human sacrifice to gods of pleasure and life style, involuntary dole, etc., etc., etc.) are complicit with the immoral act breaching natural law.

Good point!  Therefore we are all responsible for the usurpations of power in our governments.  We benefit when our governments cause coup d'etats in other nations.  Every oppression our governments impose, we are responsible to stop.  Every lie we allow to go unopposed, funnels more money and power to the illegitimate.  As we sow, so shall we reap!
