Withholding their fair share in taxes.
The wealthy business owners and their corporations have engaged in a "sustained and highly effective war on taxation," Oxfam found.
Though some of the mega-wealthy have voiced the need for them to pay their fair share, but the disparities are still gaping and calls for a global billionaire tax, which could yield as much as $250 billion annually, have not gained traction.
"Corporate taxes are disproportionately borne by the richest, thus the collapse in corporate taxes in recent decades has essentially provided another tax cut for the wealthy," Oxfam's analysis found.
