Yeah, I find that the tax avoidance issue is overblown. The numbers look large because they have collected over several years, but in the grand scheme of things they're a cup in the bucket compared to VAT, payroll and income taxes.

You have to remember that VAT, payroll, and income taxes roughly scale with revenue, but corporate taxes scale with profits.
