"No, I think everyone should pay the amount of tax that they are due to pay, "

Yes, but this is only small part of the whole truth: When you have a lot of money you buy laws which guarantee that you don't have to pay anything at all.

Much cheaper than actually paying taxes. And that is the norm, not an exception nowadays.

When bribery on top (EU Commission/US Congress) is legal, only those who bribe the most, are successful.
