All your loot are belong to the Bernster. Feel it.

Bernie would have problems spelling “Apple”
I think he has now lost any Silicon Valley support he might have had.

[SpaceBar]

It is a true mystery how this greasy old socialist fart ever gained any traction.

Apple helped create homelessness ... by paying wages that drive op housing costs?

We cannot rely on corporate tax evaders to solve California’s housing crisis ...Rely on me instead. I’ll fix everything that is broken with a wave of my Grand Socialist Wand which will magically lighten your bank and wallet at the same time - simply magic ... you’ll be amazed!

Apparently Tim Cook never watched this.

Enabling people addicted to drugs & alcohol by giving them a place to live won’t solve the problem no matter how much money he invests in affordable housing.

[Lockbox]

Yes, per Sanders Apple = corporate tax evaders. So the question is how many people at Apple support Sanders? And if Sander is the Democratic Presidential Candidate, will Apple Corporation support?

Sanders could help by donating two houses.

all while raking in $800 million of taxpayer subsidies

Well, hell's bells, Bernie, who put those on the table?

Of COURSE ODB has to say *something*. I mean, how would it look if non-govt could even make a DENT, at low $$$, vs. any ‘issue’.

Just look what many localities have done re: soup-kitchens vs. donations during hunting season (that buck isn’t ‘govt approved’ food-stuffs).

[jonrick46]

Bernie doesn’t like Apple spending money on low income housing because he wants the government doing it—at 10 times the cost that Apple would do it.

Proud Liberals created the housing crisis with their grand ideas of environmentalism. Currently in California, Los Angeles County to be exact, there is a COST of $100,000 to $125,000 for EVERY HOUSING UNIT just to Comply with STATE LAWS!!!, PLUS your Permit FEES. A 1650 Sq Ft Home has $20,000 in School and Library FEES Attached to your Building Permit. You will also incur another $50,000 to $100,000 in Direct Construction Costs to Comply with those same LAWS.

It takes a Minimum of 18 Months to go through the permitting process for new construction.

How exactly did Apple Do this???

No Bernie, SOCIALIST POLICIES created the homeless crisis!

“ renters need to earn $34.69 per hour to afford the average two-bedroom apartment.”

The area has reached carrying capacity (be it natural or legal).
If you want to live there, you have to want it more than others - proven by how much you’re willing to pay. $35/hr for 2br? yes, because there’s someone willing to pay $34/hr for it.

There’s about a million square miles of empty land in USA. Move.

[Berosus]

All right, Bernie, would you prefer to have Apple move out of California?

[Swordmaker]

The BURNie isn’t keeping up on things Apple. Apple has repatriated most of those offshore funds when Trump’s tax-cut came through two years ago and already paid the US Income Taxes and also the Foreign Income taxes on them when they were earned. Currently, Apple holds approximately $110 Billion in cash, having returned almost $300 Billion to stockholders, most in the US. Having Apple invest in housing is a good way to earn more money in long term equities, mortgages. —PING!

... it has helped create California's housing crisis

I've been to ghost towns. Isn't it funny that people leave when the jobs leave? And that housing becomes plentiful and cheap, but there are no buyers?

Isn't prosperity better than destitution and a deserted town? I like the idea that companies create jobs and enable people to build wealth.

Is it a bad thing that companies draw in people to an area, and some of those people are freeloaders (like Bernie's fans)?
