TAXATION, SOCIAL NETWORKS and CONSUMER RETAILING

ATTENTION: Facebook Executive; and all, Users and Consumers of Social Networks and Retail Spending...

Both Facebook 'Executive' and, all users of the social networks, ought seriously to consider how governments use and abuse the 'taxation' they impose.

In consequence, I respectfully advise FACEBOOK EXECUTIVE to only pay the British government the taxation, actually required by law. To make every effort to use every means necessary in order not to pay 'unnecessary' tax. Thus, they should avoid the paying of tax not actually required and determined by law.

WHY?

Because the British government 'undemocratically' abuses taxation in order to spend the MONEY wherever it pleases, without "The People" having any say in the matter at all. Just look at the current proposals for the spending of tax:

(1), The British government proposes to build four new nuclear submarines at the cost of, 30 BILLION POUNDS.

(2), It is also proposing to renew "Trident Nuclear Missiles" at the cost of, 167 BILLION POUNDS, as well.

And, "The People " who have paid all that tax have no say in the matter at all.

Users of the social networks, FACE BOOK and TWITTER, and consumers that purchase services or products from AMAZON, GOOGLE, etc. are people of all political opinion; they may support the misuse and abuse of their taxation in this way; deeming that it is  politically necessary in the ‘alleged’ defence of the country; but, likewise, very many may not hold this opinion. And, all Humankind are entitled to their own opinion. Therefore,
In my humble opinion I believe the 'Executive' of all of these organisations; must take this all into account.

When these organisations, pay more tax than they actually need to pay, MONEY THAT HAS BEEN RAISED BY ALL THEIR USERS AND CONSUMERS, they must take account, the 'opinions' they all hold.
