which applies whether the stated tax rate is 1% or 75%, so a practically useless response

unless the idea is that any written tax rate is moral if it comes from the government, which also means any legal means to mitigate the tax rate is also moral because it comes from the government

Morality exists outside of what the law states.

You're suggesting that because you can imagine both a too strict and too lenient law, morality is an impossible concept?

no, not enough information has been provided to make that decision and that grandparent-OP should elaborate on their stance

I believe everyone having the same morality is an impossible concept.

I'm not sure that's relevant to whether you personally find it moral. This conversation could exist from a personal perspective of what you find moral.

That said, even if we all have different morals it seems they're mostly compatible.
