  Yes, it is a strange kind of 'fairness' that you can assign to 'lefties' whereby in order to be 'fair' you damage economic growth and job creation and reduce tax revenues, in so doing damage the less well off. All in the name of 'fairness'.
  
  John Heron - do not be too impressed by that kind of thing. Overpaid prima-donnas like Rooney indeed will have accountants who can minimise the tax they pay. This is the problem that is created by complex tax systems and high levels of tax. Lower, simpler, flat taxes are harder to avoid and there is less incentive to do so, this is much fairer in the true sense of fair, not the 'lefties' strange idea of fairness that punishes the less well off as well as those they envy.
  
  Mitigating and reducing tax is not something for the rich only. Everyone can take advantage of the various legal tax breaks available. There is nothing wrong with it.
  
  Howard - we should celebrate their success, we need more successful people earning lots of money, the more the merrier.
