Also in the news, you can now donate to the U.S. government through paypal, to help pay down the $37 trillion debt.

I worked somewhere once that used offshore tricks like this.

Our unit was profitable, but owned by an entity in another country which also had operations.

That country charged us very high consulting and management fees, which put us into a loss, and shifted paying taxes to the other country which was more favorable.
