>They also pay 0.005% tax in Europe, sure it's legal, but is it morally ok? They certainly benefit from all the European infrastructure and academic research
Not entirely sure how they benefited European Infrastructure and Academic Research if we assume Apple made 100% of its R&D in US.
And it is morally OK fo me to not paid a single dollar of tax if I didn't make ANY profits.
A lot of people seems to have an idea where Tax should be based on Revenue and not Profits, which is basically what GST or VAT really is.
As long as profit is taxed in the country the sale is made, nobody would complain. Now it’s just transferring money and making sure to pay the taxes in the most beneficial country.
