If the strategy used for avoidance is written into tax code, then it’s reasonable that anyone would use it, that’s basic isn’t it? Petitioning for change in tax

If the strategy used for avoidance is written into tax code, then it’s reasonable that anyone would use it, that’s basic isn’t it? Petitioning for change in tax laws wouldn’t necessitate mass protests.
Stupid question—why are the ultra-wealthy expected to behave in an altruistic manner? Do we expect low-income or middle-income people to forgo a tax credit or break, and pay a “fair share”. Granted, a non-paper millionaire or billionaire may always have relatively more resources. But what’s the goal here? People are never satisfied with what they have.
I don’t care about any one class of people more than the other, simply because someone is lower income person doesn’t mean they’re fair or just or kind. However, they are often forced to adopt a facade of being such personalities (either subconsciously or otherwise) to cope with a lower social status. I do care, however, that people try to evaluate their biases.
