Tax Justice Network: Jim Hines fails to defend secrecy jurisdictions.

John Christensen's take on Jim Hines is as unenthusiastic as mine.

And this man's meant to be one of the best tax professors in the world?

His core assumption is a simple one;

The reality is that the rest of us should read this as:

Let's presume I'm from the right

And from then on we should note that he's about as objective as Margaret Thatcher ever was on any issue she discussed.
