And until all the world leaders get their act together and work together to stop this kind of tax evasion, then it will continue. However if global laws aimed at those who hide their taxes abroad are enacted in order to put and end to all these tax havens, if they go after the financial industry and actually regulate them so they can't hide money for people, then maybe, just maybe it would end. Of course I am not going to hold my breath till they do something!
