Bono is like a lot of other rich ( very rich people) he wants western developed countries to drop the debt of poorer third world countires. Absolutely nothing wrong with that. but governments everywhere have to collect tax to enable them to balance budgets and make donations to various charities and other poorer countries. This tax comes from the citizens and employers etc in general. Bono ( and others ) obviously has the intention of paying as little or no tax at all, so in effect he is preaching that the ordinary citizens in western countries should help the poorer citizens in third world countries, while staying in an offside position himself. and to make matters worse, the media fall over themselves in admiration for his stance. as one poster above states M O'L at least pays his taxes and lives here, something you cannot say about the like of JP, or Ryder Cup man himself , to name just two, whom the media cant praise highly enough, while usually implying that Ryanair is a bum airline used by bums while they themselves ( media) no doubt avail of fully paid for business class seats on other airlines. Rant over.
