Yeah, cause it's not like people ever donate expensive clothes to people... or give them as gifts. By this logic we should just expand it to everything. You own a nice TV? Better have that receipt to prove you didn't steal it, or at least show you're making plenty of money. How about that ipad you have? Yeah, gotta have the receipt for that too.
I agree it's a system that can be abused, but I also know there's some logic behind the idea. I'm not sure why I have to argue this.
