Paul O'Toole plays the role of Bono™ in begging for another Corporate Tax Break

'U2's Bono may campaign to end world poverty - but his band are taking advantage of the same tax avoidance schemes in the Republic of Ireland that rob impoverished countries of billions.

Billions drains out of impoverished countries each year because of multi-national companies shifting their profits to avoid tax. We need international action to make everyone pay their fair share.'

Some Lyrics:
....Cause I still haven’t learned about democracy
But I still haven’t learned about democracy

You paid your tax and you
Laid the blame
Carried the burden
Of my shame
Of my shame
You know I’m still running

Cause I still haven’t learned about democracy
No I still haven’t learned about democracy
But I still haven’t learned about democracy
But I still haven’t learned about democracy...
