Amazon "minimizes tax contributions?" I'll listen to that sanctimonious crap from the first person who posts their tax return showing the line where they added on some extra money they didn't owe.
- _def 6y agoThe phrasing might not be perfect, but obviously there is a huge difference in scale in what you compare. (and I don't mean in amounts of taxes, but in amounts of tactics to minimize them)
- docdeek 6y agoReminds me of the response Kerry Packer gave to the Australian parliament when accused of evading/minimizing his taxes: "I am not evading tax in any way, shape or form. Of course, I am minimising my tax. Anybody in this country who does not minimise his tax wants his head read. I can tell you as a government that you are not spending it so well that we should be donating extra."

You are conflating voluntary donations (which actually happens) with dodging the taxes that everybody is supposed to pay. Tax avoidance follows the law by the letter but obviously violates the spirit.
