Tax Avoidance: Moral or Not?

[ukatheist]

That's a scheme. I consider that as bad as any other "scheme" to avoid taxes.

Let me make it clear that looking for deductibles so you don't have to pay as much tax is one thing. Schemes such as the one presented here, is another entirely. I'm ok with the former, not the latter.

Yeah, I'd classify using the usual deductibles to reduce tax liability as tax planning, not avoidance. The law permits particular categorisations of expenses to be deducted from income, and that is the intention of that law.
