Which is worse?

[Oneeyedvic]

Someone who takes full advantage of the benefits system (like the one highlighted below)

or a Business person who employs an accountant to pay less tax by legal means.

[ummmm]

The above....

[Gromit]

Both as bad.

[R1Geezer]

No one does the latter in a proper business, that's what the public sector do. In any business wages are the largest cost and any that can be avoided will be.

[Old_Geezer]

Neither. Both are simply maximising their own benefit.

[olddutch]

Only one way to find out .......Fxxxxxght !

sorry - but it was too tempting

[ganesh]

Why gromit,no-one wants to pay loads more tax than they have to and it is made deliberately complicated so that some of us are paying more than we should.If it's legal then it's our right to pay what we are legally supposed to pay.
The benefit system may need altering if people are abusing it legally as in this case,but you are assuming that all people who have an accountant to work out their tax are just as immoral!
