We're screwed.

[FatherofFive]

We could, at this point, suggest that the Treasury actually has a negative amount of cash because the amount it appears to have is less than it owes Apple and Microsoft in those short-term Treasuries.

The government is 17 trillion in debt. I have more money than the government.

[Yo-Yo]

But the Government has more ammunition than Apple, and with more ammunition it can take all the money it wants.

There is more cash under my living room sofa cushion than the U.S. government.

Government today is in big business, where it is at a disadvantage to hold any cash position. It gives its cash away to purchase votes that not only maintain the “big” in big business, but can grow this business even further. It has gotten so good at this, that it borrows from the future to buy votes today.

And the five cents is a Buffalo nickel...

Buy the U.S. government and fire all of them for incompetence.

The treasury should not have more in cash than their expenses.

If they do, they should either pay down their debt or reduce their tax rates.

Apple needs to bring production back to America.

[jch10]

Well of course they do. Apple knows who has paid them and who hasn’t!
