Michael Moore says that so much corporate cash overseas represents a national resource or natural resources, which should be harvested for the common good.

But there’s the catch—. Who exactly decides what is in the public interest or for the common good?? The likes of Michael Moore and Hillary and Obama???? Eliz. Warren????

Do you think they will share some of their stash?

I don’t mind Apple or any company for that matter denying the government of the United States money they think is theirs.

And to the IRS...GFY!

I still remember the days when Microsoft bailed Apple out, so they wouldn’t go under, and leave them with a monopoly.

Big mistake.

That much free cash guarantees Apples independence. It is an available resource as protection against hostile actions against the company from any source or entity.

Once Trump gets his tax reform through, Apple will move much of their cash back the USA and start spending it here in America, resulting in more American jobs. They are keeping it offshore because of the ridiculous Democrat tax rates.

President Trump is going to be the best thing to happen to Apple since the iPod.

Below is an iPod user celebrating the results of November 8th.

IF I owned a lot of Apple stock, I would be wondering if they are sharing their profits with their investors properly.

$250. Billion? Wow, they could buy more politicians than George Soros, just by using the short term interest. Their principle would remain as untouched as the purest virgin!

Notice how the left never criticizes their own?

EXXON. Horrid.

Apple or Starbucks. Silence.

Hypocrites at everything they say or do.

Looks like Apple has a fifth column here at Free Republic. I wonder how much they get paid. This thread is like one big love fest.

Why would any company want to hold that much money?

And what business is that of yours, Tripp Mickle?

From memory I think there have been four times in US history where tax breaks were given for repatriating foreign cash holdings. Apple has been holding out all this time hoping for this to happen again. Looks like it was a good idea.

If we could get taxes and regulations down Apple might spend that money.
