International media corporations aggressively
paying their minimum in taxes is old news by now.
Amazon, Google Ebay etc- we know who they are
and how their legal and finance departments operate,
as the smartest and fastest new money on the planet.
We were never meant to see how their money hides,
nor were our governments, who are well behind
in taxing electronic money in a legally water-tight way.
We are more meant to be awed by their takings.
Impressed by the life-style options on offer
as we press the buttons and play
like we are in 'Brave New World', whilst distancing
ourselves from the people we pretend we have met.
We accept Yahoo etc little realising that later,
that those who own the buttons we pay to press
will also see paying corporate taxes as 'a lifestyle option'.
