I feel like this article does 4 things:
1. Foment rage at the inequalities of the tax system (very easy to do) through their simple narrative
2. Flag to wealthy people who are paying their fair share to look at how to further improve their tax efficiency.
3. Create political damage (which seem to lean democratic) to the individuals who are doing everything legally?
It seems like ProPublica is trying to continue to lay the groundwork for a wealthtax campaign by fomenting further rage around the inequalities of US tax system.
Aside from that I have deep concerns about the source of this information and why it was used. Seems like IRS taxes have been weaponized and are readily available. Everyone should be deeply concerned about how ProPublica got this information.
