Should taxes take bigger bite of Apple?
Gee I dunno? Maybe we should find out what their executive secretaries tax rates are first?

Apple may have sidestepped some taxes but they did not get billions in Obama money give away.

The best thing for Apple: leave CA and move to TX.

Ummmm, no.
1. Eliminate ALL corporate tax.
1a. Eliminate ALL depletion allowances and depreciation allowances.
2. Eliminate ALL current IRS regulations.
3. Set the individual tax rate at 10% regardless of income.
3a. Perquisites at taxed at 10% of cost.
3b. Withhold at the rate of 11%, to get a refund you have to file taxes, but there is no legal imperative to file.
4. Tax ALL money coming into the country at 0% (yes, ZERO%).
5. Tax ALL money leaving the country at 10%.

They should pay no more, no less than any other corporation.

Should Apple pay more taxes than they are legally required to pay based on the NY Times hit piece article? PING! Especially considering the article was basing their argument on the taxes paid in 2011 on 2010 earnings but using 2011's income to calculate the "shockingly low" tax rate, AFTER Apple had doubled its profits. The taxes Apple will pay this year, will reflect those increased earning of 2011, you NY Times dummies!
Apple tax rate Ping!

Apple, as a publicly traded company, is obligated to act in the best interests of its shareholders, not whiny NYT reporters.

Apple “sidesteps” taxes just like millions of law-abiding taxpayers do every year - they take the acceptable and allowable deductions for business expenses and other perfectly legal means of reducing tax burden.
This is no different than any other company, large or small -
