許志永作為知名律師,為社會正義做了許多有益的事情。
但知名律師更應是遵守國家法律的表率——依法納稅。

「It has to pay business taxes. Hence the tax bill, which the group says it has paid. The authorities have also declared a research group within the organisation illegal because, they say, it is unregistered.
The group』s leader, Xu Zhiyong, is bracing himself for possible arrest. On July 21st the owners of his office and residence called him to say they wanted him out. Guo Yushan, the leader of another, less well-known NGO, a free-market research group called the Transition Institute, says he too has recently been accused of tax irregularities. A prominent HIV/AIDS NGO, the Aizhixing Institute, was subjected to a tax investigation last year. Last week the government disbarred 53 lawyers, including one associated with OCI.
Mr Xu seems to have made some powerful enemies. Since it was set up in 2003, OCI, with half a dozen staff and numerous volunteers, has specialised in giving legal advice to victims of official injustice. After thousands of children were sickened by melamine-contaminated milk last year, OCI helped their parents press for compensation, upstaging a government-backed compensation scheme which offered lower amounts.」
