Sorry, Dude…

As much as I like Apple, their tax policy sucks. It's time to cough up, pay your bill and be a good citizen.

Oh government, they can't produce anything of their own so they use threat of force to steal money from people and corporations. 

You mean, like build roads and bridges? Educate our children? Take care of us when we get old? No, government does a lot of good, a lot of good. 

Apple was charging way too much money for iAd. And, they only wanted the big, corporate players.

I'm surprised that Google only has 9% of the mobile market; I thought it would be much higher.

Despicable how Apple, and so many other companies are shirking their tax liabilities. Glad to see Italy doing this; the European Union has more guts than our corporate-beholden reps. I remember both California senators, both democrats, coming out (for about one week) in favor of Apple's self-serving 5% repatriation tax (holiday). Shameful. 

I'd like to know the difference between an industrial age tax code and a digital age tax code. To me, it just sounds like Tim and Company don't like paying taxes. But, maybe others can explain his thoughts.
