It is my understanding that there were no closed door negotiations between Apple and the Irish government and that Apple designed and complied with the existing, published, Irish Tax rules, rates and procedures.... Is that not true? -

EU: We realize you have followed the law between 2004 and 2012 but we want to retroactively change the law so that you can pay us more taxes. Ireland did not have the authority to give you that tax deal.
Apple: Then sue Ireland for that amount of money. Not the corporations who follow its laws.
Imagine the governments of North America doing this to it's citizens and corporations. There would be civil war 2.
