This is about tax avoidance, not tax evasion. There is a big difference.
Correct. But often the practical difference is hard to tell. I mean:
technically, when it's legal it's avoidance, when it's illegal it's
evasion, the difference is clear. But is it legal to lie about facts, as
Google is allegedly doing about UK engineering, according to the cited
article?
In any case, the moral obligation of corporates is to maximize
stakeholders' revenues. This obviously means they *have to* do tax
avoidance. Just do your business and don't tell me foolish things, such as
"Don't do evil".
