    Same principle should apply to tax laws.

    It's not like it's accidental action - BN66 and other schemes are all deliberately found and used loopholes in the system to gain financial advantage. It should be no more legal than doing the same to online banks.
    Wow, take the blinkers off AtW and you may learn something. This is what happened to MPs 5 years ago... hoodwinked by HMRC. MPs are seeing the light of what BN66 actually did. Looks like you are playing catch up. Will leave you to research the same...

      You still don't get it?

      Existance of security bug, even if it was known for years, gives no legal right to anybody steal money by using this bug/hole - it would still be Computer Misuse and possibly other crimes.

      Same way tax laws should be viewed - if it's a "loophole" then those who took advantage of it should be treated same way as hackers who steal people's money from banks.

        Again, blinkers off. Do some research.

          What research?

          Should I quit my job and spend rest of my life looking for the unknown research you want me to know?

            No, he said that men should respect the laws of their earthly rulers. Paying tax is simply one of those, in just the same way a Christian can't say "I don't need car insurance, God will protect me". The morality is in following the law. And for the nth time, tax avoidance is legal.

              He did not say that.

              What he said was basically - what's called HIS is actually HIS.

              He was in charge.

                I think you'll find every biblical commentator disagrees with you. But I guess you know more than theologians just as you know more than economists? Those programming schools in Russia must be amazing!

                      They also taught in school how to throw a grenade and how to recognise RAF sign on airplanes as if those airplanes would be stationary to see it
