But sure, keep being an apologist and call people who blame, among other things, the actual source of the problems "confused". Oh wait, you don't seem to consider that a problem. You just shift the entirety of the blame on some theoretical "Government" entity, because that entity didn't think of every imaginable and unimaginable way one could circumvent a law, while still keeping the laws clear.
Then I'm sorry, we have nothing more to talk about.
- crusso 11y ago"that entity didn't think of every imaginable and unimaginable way one could circumvent a law" That is factually untrue of the loopholes exploited. Many of these loopholes were put in place explicitly to benefit the cronyists. Others have been in place for some time, but the lawmakers and the IRS don't want to fix them. Government has the power. They write the laws. They even make the rules regarding legal lobbying. Blaming the corporations that legally lobby and follow the tax laws is like blaming a child who acts like a brat because his parents are crappy parents. You blame the rule makers and those in power a great deal more than you blame those who are just following the rules.
