        However, that does not mean they should have their wealth expropriated and distributed throughout the country.

        Not by hard work but by tax minimization.

        As Kerry Packer said - any one who doesn’t minimise their tax is an idiot. minimising is not avoiding.

        Me? No I'm very anti communist and very pro capitalism. Capitalism is not the best system but its the best system the world has ever seen.

        Sad when workers want our government to reverse many union measures that have built wealth for workers & the places they shop in order to boost wealth of the 1% (who spend this extra $$ offshore)

        Yes, companies do send money offshore. I wonder why ... For a clue, look what happened when the US just lowered the corporate tax rate and cut regulations. Corporations are bringing money back onshore, investing in growth and hiring more people.

        Really? Then why is jobs growth down on each of the last 6 years? No business spends money hiring people they don't need.

        The tax cuts weren't signed until the end of 2017. How do you expect data for calendar year 2017 to reflect that impact? We don't have data yet, but we do have observations of the markets and business plans. Apple's recent announcement is a good example.
