Your deletion of "Tax haven" section from Economic inequality

I noticed that you removed the brief section I had added about tax havens indicating that "(t)his belong to an article about tax evasion - the section describes the effect of taxes on inequality, not whatever causes the tax revenue to go up and down." Your argument misses the point that use of tax havens contributes to the inequality gap [1], yet this point is not discussed in the article. You can argue about my wording and improve it, and debate if "tax haven" should have its separate header and not be listed under "taxes". Use of tax havens is not illegal, per se, but an opportunity, for the rich (and only for them), to move money into a friendlier environment, often exploiting the tax code. As a result their wealth is protected, but their government collects less revenue, and their country carries financial obligations that are shared by everybody. The role of tax havens should not be omitted from the article.Ekem (talk) 23:25, 24 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Occupy Wall Street edit

Hi! Thanks for your recent edit to the article, however it was reverted due to a reversal of another editors contribution. Although I am not the editor who made the revert I wanted to say why I did not restore your edit. The section you altered is part of a compromise instated after some work with Dispute Resolution and many hours of talk page discussion. Before you make this change again, I would discuss your reasoning on the talkpage to clarify what you feel the reference is saying. Thanks.--Amadscientist (talk) 06:55, 25 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
