Why hasn't someone created a company that handles this setup for small to midsize companies? Think of it as the Paychex for legal tax evasion. Their clients could all share the same legal addresses in Ireland and the Netherlands. They could keep up with the shifting tax laws and take care of opening all the appropriate banks accounts and filling out the right forms.

Of course, the loopholes should be closed, but until they are we could at least keep things fair by making the same techniques available to anyone.



Well technically it is available for small to midsize companies. There a number of websites that market these plans, but usually they're pretty sketchy haha. As an example, "www.escapeartist.com" are what's usually available openly.

Most tax professionals that are capable will provide these tax plans to their clients, but they'll do so quietly because its not something you'd want to advertise and also people generally dont like it when they find out you've gone "offshore" and etc.


Actually, making it easy to exploit loopholes is probably a good way to ensure that they are closed. (Possibly leaving more subtle ones open...)
