Tax Avoidance

[EvianBaby]

Jimmy Carr (comedian) is being criticised for his use of a tax avoidance system.

If you earned millions of pounds, wouldn't you try and find a legal way in which you could retain as much of that as possible or would you think "best get my cheque off to the tax man for this load of wedge"?

Should he feel guilty that he's depriving the country of a lot of money he would pay in taxes or is he clever in working out a way to keep his fortunes that appears to be completely legitimate?

Can't wait for Carr to appear on 'Have I Got News For You'. That'll be quite interesting! Meantime, while Carr has been castigated, I haven't heard much mention of Mr T. Blair's financial arrangements..
