I live in India, one of the most corrupt countries that I have lived in. I cringe paying atrocious taxes. I shared your sentiment for a long time but these days I just am happy to pay whatever taxes like Bourdain says. To me personally, the effort required to optimise taxes is better spent elsewhere. Which is also why I cringe when startups talk about optimising taxes before even making a dime in profit and fall prey to registering their companies in low tax regions.
