Tax strategies are generally about figuring out how to pay the least amount in taxes. Few people invest time and energy in maximizing their tax burden, but lots of people spend time trying to minimize it.
Because of the wide variety of types of taxes there are an equally dizzying number of approaches to paying as little as possible. In fact, reducing one kind of tax burden can result in increasing another. Because of this it is generally important to have a broad tax strategy that looks at total tax burden, rather than one particular type of tax.
