This may be an interesting piece of rhetoric, but does little to advance the argument. I know that GE employs some of the most sophisticated international tax planners on the planet (as they should). I have no idea how much tax they have avoided, and I doubt they evaded any.
How much tax do you think they should have paid? How much should Johnson & Johnson have paid? Due to a quirk of the laws of Wisconsin, it is comparatively easy to find out how much money their corporations actually paid to the government, which is not necessarily close to the amount on their filings.
