Point two we just disagree on fundamentally. Something can be legal, yet still immoral/unethical. That's a fact. But obviously everyone won't hold the same opinion as to whether it is, or isn't... that's the great thing about the country, we have different beliefs but can coexist. Tax codes need to be changed to a tiered flat tax so that deductions are a thing of the past (IMO, again some would disagree) regardless of income level. It would greatly decrease the budget of the IRS as well. The tax code was written by the wealthy, to benefit the wealthy. Simple as that. Same reason Congress gets it's own health care system and the like. You'll never see someone leave Congress in the middle class.
I understand your points, and nothing I am going to say is going to change your beliefs. It's the same thing I've heard for a very long time from wealthy family/friends in many cases. I hear it from middle class family and friends occasionally, but to a much lesser extent.
