I'm going to focus on just one example from this report.
Seven Springs is a very large properly that he purchased, and claims and reports as an investment property. This allows deductions of all loan interest, upkeep/maintenance, and operating expenses.
Based on family statements in the past, the property is used primarily as a personal residence.
Reporting a personal property as an investment property in order to deduct expenses is not "tax avoidance", it is tax fraud.
Actually, it means you aren't paying your share for the services provided by the public.
The only people who think that tax avoidance is a good thing are the unethical rich and the American embarrassed millionaires who've been convinced to vote against their own best interests.
Tax avoidance has different colors. Some of it is totally fine, others is more concerning. I agree with you on the tone that is coming out that tax avoidance is wrong is totally bs. Tax evasion on the other hand is completely wrong and illegal.
