Extensive offshore dealings by Donald Trump’s cabinet members, advisers and donors, including substantial payments from a firm co-owned by Vladimir Putin’s son-in-law to the shipping group of the US commerce secretary, Wilbur Ross.

How Twitter and Facebook received hundreds of millions of dollars in investments that can be traced back to Russian state financial institutions.

The tax-avoiding Cayman Islands trust managed by the Canadian prime minister Justin Trudeau’s chief moneyman.

A previously unknown $450m offshore trust that has sheltered the wealth of Lord Ashcroft.

Aggressive tax avoidance by multinational corporations, including Nike and Apple.

How some of the biggest names in the film and TV industries protect their wealth with an array of offshore schemes.

The billions in tax refunds by the Isle of Man and Malta to the owners of private jets and luxury yachts.

The secret loan and alliance used by the London-listed multinational Glencore in its efforts to secure lucrative mining rights in the Democratic Republic of the Congo.

The complex offshore webs used by two billionaires to buy stakes in Arsenal and Everton football clubs.

Etc.

None of this is shocking or unexpected. What multinational corporation doesn’t aggressively avoid taxes? If they didn’t they have the wrong people working for them. As far as world’s wealthy elite go, that’s how it as always been and will always be.
 
This is why they can have nice things, and we can't.

Taxes are for the little people.
 
What's wrong with protecting YOUR money?

Spain incarcerating their leaders for 20-30 years

fired all their cops, firemen, and emergency personnel because they are starting to ask why their money should be over 20% of Spain's GDP when they get less than nothing back on that investment
