Tax avoidance should be punished, that's all.

Oh, and in my country, it is punished, it's just that the team which must find about the culprit are totally under staffed, what-a-surprise.

You're mistaking tax avoidance with tax evasion.

Tax avoidance and tax evasion are distinct things. Tax avoidance is (deliberately) legal. Why do you think it should be punished?
