I do not support either of those things.
I just want Americans to have jobs.
Jobs.
You very clearly said that you were in favor of Apple paying more corporate tax. Don’t you understand that companies are mobile, and will inevitably move to lower-tax jurisdictions in order to meet their fiduciary responsibilities to their shareholders?
I think you have never run a business, nor taken an economics class.
You want Americans to have jobs. You should study the numbers first:
The numbers at a glance
1,027,000 U.S. jobs created or supported by Apple. Yes, ONE MILLION!!
627K Jobs attributable to the iOS ecosystem
334K Jobs at other companies resulting from Apple’s spending and growth
66K Apple employees in the U.S.
Do you realize that 2/3 million jobs were created from scratch starting just seven years ago? What’s the government done in the same time? Doubled food stamp rolls from 25 million to 50 million.
You would make yourself sound better if you were more informed.
So, set blame on who is really causing the problem. Hint: it's not Apple. Apple is just doing what any smart business would do. The problem lies with our gubmint and their ridiculous corporate tax rates and laws. FWIW, I don't use and really don't care for Apple products.
