Yes You Are
If I were to contact a tax attorney and explained to him that I thought I could dodge my tax burden by opening an offshore business, in name only, and then claiming that my income was foreign created and he agreed that “it would be legal†and then I did just that – would it be legal? Of course not. I would have broken a law and If caught would pay the penalty.
You have the idea that if a lawyer thinks it is legal THAT MAKES IT SO.
It does not and the fact that a person did not understand the law is no excuse. Intent be dammed.
If you did not break a law by mining Saturn of course you would not expect to be prosecuted. If you did break a law you should expect to be prosecuted.
It’s that simple.
