[quote=harvey][quote=flu]I don’t have issues with anyone trying to legally maneuver to pay less taxes.[/quote]
I don’t think anyone here is going to make an argument against that.
It’s been said here before: The issue comes down to who gets to define what actually is legal.
Offshore tax-havens may be legal, but that doesn’t mean they are a sound (or fair) fiscal policy.
I’m not sure we want someone who is a champion of such polices to be writing the rules.[/quote]
“Fairness” is subjective.
For instance I don’t think it’s “fair” to have public pensions continuing their unrealistic payouts at the expense of taxpayers, but that again is a fairly subjective opinion. Someone that collects a public pension would probably feel fairness means that they should continue the unrealistic promised returns.
Therefore, I guess the issue of “fairness” it can be only decided democratically, even if not a perfect system …
Yes, I do have a problem with paying more taxes. because no one else seems to want to do it too.
