   It’s pick on Apple time. When will it be pick on GE, Exxon-Mobil, and all the other HUGE corporations that take advantage of what America provides to all from the tax dollars collected from the middle class and poor?

   If it was GM or GE the slots just do not pay out. Apple paid 6 BILLION! that is NOT chump change! So what is a liberals view? Punish them by Taxing them more? I tell you what you should do, stop charging a lot less than 35% to repatriate the money they do make outside our borders. Then maybe they would be more inclined to invest in the USA.

   Hey Apple did not have sweetheart deal to instal power stations for the Volt in the middle east. Glad we had money for that…

   Before any liberals out there bash Apple allow me to ask you personally one question. Last April 15 did you take even one penny deduction for interest you paid on your home, or a child deduction or a health expense deduction etc etc If you did then you did exactly what Apple did. They simply obeyed the tax law as written by Congress and signed by the President. They took legal deductions exactly the same as you. Why fault them for obeying the law? Even the liberal Senators had to admit they did nothing wrong.

   So, just don’t pay taxes? Isn’t that how this whole thing started? How do you think the Bridge at Concord was paid for? You can’t have it both ways. A First-World Nation with no capital becomes a third-world country with no Capitol.

   You know what’s wrong with libertarians? You have no Kool Aid to drink and you think. Next thing you know you’ll be spouting something smart like a flat tax.

    I watched Dem.Sen.Carl Levin use his committee hearing to browbeat and taunt the Apple Inc. top 3 leaders (hostages forced to appear and “answer Qs”) and continuously repeat his warped view of Apple’s tax situation as “cheating” and “causing a lack of revenue” for the US congress to spend!

    -
    What is astounding, is that Apple Inc. pays every cent legally owed to the US treasury.
    They obey the Tax Laws that Hypocrite Carl Levin has been writing for decades! Levin and the other Democrats seem to believe that every penny earned belongs #1 to the Feds.

    There is no limit as to how low Liberals in Congress can sink, IMO
    -
    P.S. it would be interesting, IMO, to learn how much political donations Apple Inc. executives have given Levin and other Democrats over the years!
