Burnett On Taxes: Obligation To "Pay As Little As You Can"
CNBC's Erin Burnett and Joe Scarborough had the following exchange on Monday's edition of "Morning Joe" on MSNBC:
SCARBOROUGH: They tell me though it's all legal ... all legal.
BURNETT: Of course it is.
SCARBOROUGH: There's a big difference between tax avoidance and being an all out tax cheat.
BURNETT: That's right. Isn't it your obligation in this country, there is a tax code for a reason, to take advantage of every bit of it you can and pay as little as you can.
