Tax and the mafia state

Tax avoidance is a normal human response to physical force.Since when did it become illegal.Just as an individual would cross over the road to avoid a mugger the natural reaction to a predatory state is to take action to circumvent it. Everyone who can  does it hence the maligned black economy.If governments crack down on this perfectly rational behaviour there will just be another flight of business out of the country,the much famed braindrain of old.Instead of jumping on the anti business Labour bandwagon the gov should defend businesses from protecting their profits and pledge not to wage a vendetta against them.

The vile socialist witch bitch Margaret Hodge of the Public Affairs Comintern star chamber tried  on the radio 4 Today pro to equate tax avoidance with benefit fraud  seemingly unable to distinguish between an attempt by business to keep hold of its earnings and a welfare troglodyte gaming the system. Apparently the businesses in question  in her twisted universe are somehow, depriving the taxpayers although even in her crazy pretellogic this is surely  a cognitive contortion too far.
