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.
Gotcha. I should have read the OP more carefully.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
