Exactly. I say kudos to Starbucks, and I’m not a big fan.

So Starbucks reduced their tax outlays... cry me a fricken river Lefties.

“It means that companies can exploit loopholes to minimise their bills."

At least Mr. Sinclair properly called it "tax minimization" rather than the illegal "tax avoidance."

What is it with libs who think people and companies should pay more to The State than required by law? Then you have people like Romney who paid 59% of his income combined to taxes and charity -- one coerced theft and the other generosity of the heart. Will Obama excoriate Romney tonight for not paying the entire 59% to The State?

What??? No wait: they are all about social justice and the poo-er and all sorts of lefty bs! And they are trying to stiff a tax bill?

They should be paying MORE than they should because thats what they claim to believe!

Yep its all good when its thee...not so hot when its me.

Sure take advantage everywhere you can of the breaks you can...but don’t support the hectoring to do otherwise....

The coffee chain has not broken any law and yesterday insisted HM Revenue & Customs did not have a problem with its activities.

Buried about half way into the article. So basically this is rabble rousing and there is no story.

It’s always the most leftist companies that avoid paying taxes it seems
