Original Note:
The term "tax cheats" is an implication of criminal activity. Describing someone in this way for properly using current tax law to their advantage is not legally accurate nor is it ethical without direct evidence of a crime being commited. It borders on defamation. https://www.law.cornell.edu/wex/defamation https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Legal_ethics https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Defamation
