>>The point is that normal people can't afford to dodge taxes like google (and others) so they are not happy about it.
If your assumption is all of 98,771 Google employees are dodging their income taxes on the extra money Google "saves" from Double Irish Dutch Sandwich, you could not be farther from the truth.
Someday the money "saved" from this "dirty evil" scheme has come-out in the form of
* Stock buy back
* Dividend
* Employee Salaries/Bonus
* R&D Investment
* Merger and Acquisition
* New Hires
All of the above are taxed anyway.
We are talking about extra "Corporate" tax whatever that means.
Google "Milton Friedman and Corporate Taxes" he has a much better explanation than me.
