just wanted a position to place a comment really, to tell you that your blog sucks. won't even argue the stupid arguments you have placed here - truth is self evident. what have you or anyone else for the matter done to deserve a slice of my money?? if someone delivers a product i like i buy it but no one is entitled to the fruits of my labour for free - and i am entitled to preserve the wealth that I generate. so go out there and start working your arse off to make a buck or two - tax evasion, at any cost is now a MORAL IMPERATIVE - governments have no right to spend my money as if there's no tomorrow. i work - i earn - i keep. is that too difficult for you to comprehend??? God bless tax havens - they are the last refuge of the hard working man.
