The global "super-rich elite" are hiding more than $21 trillion US in tax havens, the amount equal to the combined GDP of the United States and Japan, according to a new report.
rather than seeking ways to get "their money" maybe we should be decreasing taxes on the rest of us.
Of course this would limit the size of government, something Im sure the o.p. would be against.
The real black hole in the economy is the one called government.

I support Occupy Wall Street.
Back on topic. Some people only seem to be concerned about their own well-being, not the well-being of the country. These people are not concerned about losing any quality of living. They're just hoarding mass amounts of wealth.

Why don't you make a pact with yourself.
Find ways to make money - start your own businesses if you want to. Work 80 hours a week and do whatever it takes to earn a lot of money.
Once you have done whatever it takes to succeed and you are independently wealthy --- Give It All Away.
Disperse it any way you wish.
Just because you think that the wealthy are not concerned about the well-being of the country, doesn't make it so.
If you want to help, get your fellow Liberals to start donating more to charities. Democrats are very stingy in that area.

It doesn't mean their findings shouldn't be taken into consideration. You certainly aren't going to expect "big money" interests to spend a dime conducting any research on the topic. Aside from that, you know if they did, the results would be just as skewed and phony. Obviously, there is a problem of missing tax revenue. Money sitting idle does not get taxed. We should start asking why we aren't generating enough tax revenue. And just because the OWS movement looks foolish and poorly articulates their beliefs doesn't mean they don't have at least some valid, though primitive points.
