> then they want to cheat as much as legally possible on their taxes when they're grown up. If it's legal, it isn't cheating...

  Only if you believe there is no difference between whats legal and whats moral.

    So why isn't your outrage with the government that adds tax incentives for businesses? It's like being pissed off at people who live in section 8 housing for not paying enough rent...

      I do think the government giving preferential treatment to some businesses is anti competitive, didn't say otherwise. That doesn't mean those who take advantage of unfair laws are completely absolved of blame either - they made a choice. You/grandparent seem to be saying businesses (and the real people who make these decisions) have zero responsibility to society besides what is legally forced upon them. To put your logic back to you, if someone hacks your phone, steals all your data and blackmails you, you should be "outraged" only at the engineers who let the security vulnerability go through (i.e created the incentive), but not the hacker who is actually exploiting that vulnerability.
