  • Apple slams story of cash hidden in Jersey to reduce taxes, calls itself 'largest taxpayer...

    Why is it so high a tax rate for US company to bring home earnings? It’s like the US Government doesn’t want US multinational company to bring back any earnings to the US. High repatriation tax rate makes company looks for loopholes to pay less taxes. The US Congress should be saying “we see what’s happening; let’s reduce repatriation tax rate to make is easy for company to bring back earning from abroad so these companies can use the money to create more jobs” or something to that nature. It boggles my mind the stupidity of high repatriation tax rate.

    Just like digital stabilization is worse than optical. The artificial blur will never be as good as real optical focus.
    Optical and digital stabilization has their own advantages over the other. I wouldn’t say that one is better than the other. 

    Here are are some advantages of digital stabilization:
    1. I can use decades old manual lenses
    2. In DSLR cases, I only have to pay for stabilization once—in the camera—not in every lens I buy
    3. Makes my overall gear lighter
    4. Six axis stabilization while optical has three

    I don’t need to point out the advantages of optical since you already know that. Cheers! 😊
