Not really. Corporate taxes and personal taxes are two very different things. Ikea didn't commit tax fraud (at least from what I heard), they just used structures to minimise taxes. Those weren't loopholes, they were made by countries for companies like Ikea.

Companies utilising those structures aren't the problem. It's governments creating the opportunities. Same as with tax incentives for investments. You can't blame a company using tax incentives but you can blame the state/city/region that they created them.

Companies own the governments that create those opportunities.
