> If you blame the company for doing this then I expect that you also make 0 deductions on your personal taxes and pay as much as possible. Yeah not the same thing. The same thing would be for us to open a shell company in Bermuda, ask our job to pay us through there and use that bank account to pay for our local purchase. The deductions we get are for a reason, as long as the reason apply, it's perfectly ethical to use theses deductions. Once you don't actually respect that reason, no it's not ethical to use theses deductions. I knew some independent workers that went to restaurant and put that as a business expense to get a deduction. It was clearly not an actual business expense, we could argue that it was (well how could you have a business without eating?), but it was certainly not related to any business being done. The deduction would still pass, it would still be "legal", but it wouldn't be ethical at all.
