schestowitzDr Roy, I've just re-read the article and I'm baffled to understand how you interpret it as 'picking on Google'. It looks to me as if the article is largely sympathetic to Schmidt's position. Tax avoidance is a big issue at the moment and especially for the Guardian, for example:May 28 01:24

schestowitzJohn, they aren't accusations, but statements of fact. You mentioned "not for profit" as if that were in some way a guarantee that the Guardian was independent. On the contrary, precisely because it is a non-profit, loss-making newpaper it is vulnerable - it has to pay it bills and someone has to provide that money.May 28 01:26

schestowitzLike I said, I read the article differently:May 28 09:07
schestowitz    However, Schmidt said Google's pledges on social responsibility were not incompatible with a legalistic approach to paying taxes: "I do not agree with this and the reason is that at least under American law we have a fiduciary responsibility to our shareholders to account for things properly, so if we were, for example, to just arbitrarily decide to pay a different tax rate than we were required to, a more favourable one May 28 09:07

schestowitz    "Somehow these questions are ignored in the debate. We are very happy with whatever the countries all come to agreement on. We are not particularly upset about it."May 28 09:08
