I also find the idea that the exceedingly wealthy can effectively buy their way out of our tax system. Even if in this case all the money did actually go to causes of his choosing it's not a just system and I'm saddened you are being down-voted for just having a contrary opinion.

Maybe he didn't want his money going to buy more cluster munitions, depleted uranium bombs, clean water act rollbacks, napalms, etc etc?

I hate taxes as well & under our current "leaders"... seeing that they are putting the entire economy at risk with their military over spending... then I would love to figure out how to maximally avoid taxes as well.

Avoiding taxes does not lead to less military spending. Amazon and GE usually pay less federal taxes than the average US citizen but have plenty of lobbyists shoving money into politicians' pockets, just like most defense contractors.

You're better off fighting the influence of money in politics if you want your taxes to be well spent
