    Yes, it's a bizarre choice to link those two together.

    Such well meaning, law abiding tax payers we have in this thread. Apparently none of you are multi-millionaires, otherwise you'd be singing a different tune. If y'all want to point out hypocrisy in this thread, it starts right there.

    And for the the record, essential is the only one commenting in this thread who (as far as I know) makes a living as an accountant.

    If you're gonna try to make a valid point, you may want to edit the line "end of the septum" to "end of the spectrum"; as I would hate you to confuse the bit of skin in the middle of your nose, with a word meaning the whole range of colours...?

    The only way she could protect her anonymity involves setting up a dummy company in Panama, which just happens to be a place where wealthy people stash their money and avoid paying their fair share of taxes. Uh huh. Sure.

    This thread is like a litmus test for people who have graduated high school versus those who just read articles recommended by facebook.

    About 50% of the posts are flat-out wrong. (excluding any arguing feminism in either direction, as IDNGAF about that)


    (ps: I have a masters degree in taxation, with a focus on international taxation.)

    There are actually some countries where the only way a foreign person is allowed to own real estate is by forming a corporation to hold the property.

    Emma Watson needs to go to prison for tax evasion and get gangbanged by groups lesbians (who preferably film it on camera) and maybe the prison guards too , so she loosens up and finally shows her tits on screen when she gets out.

    Not at all. Now that Emma has been exposed as a tax evading fraud, a greedy cheating citizen, her sincerity in her supposed fight for equality, can be legitimately called into question. I mean a tax evading fraudulent citizen in her own nation, also the ambassador for He-For-She gender equality campaign? Does this even compute?

    Its like the government of Pakistan and their apparent fight against Islamic Terrorists. LOLWAT?

    Your points have nothing to do with the other. Your saying if someone skips taxes means they will also shoot people. one does not mean the other

    Isn't Mexico one?
    I had a client who purchased an apartment in Paris under a partnership name. It was so that nobody would know who really owned it and he could transfer shares of ownership (between his kids) very easily without going to government offices in Paris. A lot of counties in the US put real estate ownership information online and putting even your own home in a trust or corporate name can hide from public eyes where you live. Celebrities do it all the time locally - celebrities as in professional athletes.

    Once again, you're not presenting any logical argument to follow. You're quick to condemn her and label her a bunch of unfounded insults due to your sad agenda, but even if we operate under the assumption that she willingly committed tax fraud, that makes you somehow believe she doesn't really believe in gender equality? Thats like saying you cant be an animal rights activist if you have speeding tickets. There's no logic because you're operating entirely based on emotions.

    You can't play social warrior and then hide from taxes. The explanation is bullshit. In fact couldn't she have set up a non profit foundation or some shit and then paid no taxes but had to contribute in some way. A better explanation would have been that she didn't know all the details about this tax avoidance.

    One of you silly guys still need to explain the tax evasion part. You're failing at step A of your argument.

    My favorite horrible arguments are the ones that might as well be saying, "Well, she hasn't denied that she hired someone to poison Prince, so she's obviously guilty of that too!"
