I am not American, but if I was, much of the above would also upset me. But you are invoking a straw man, my point was that Apple should pay more tax (especially to Europe), not solve all the worlds problems. I get that you don't care.


Apologies for assuming you were from the US but I hear this from Americans quite a lot about their tech giants.

I wasn't trying to create a strawman but I stand by my argument as counter to yours.

Tax isn't a moral issue. It's a financial one.

Also, it's not that I don't care but I stand by my assessment: If you increase Apple's costs, the consumers will pay it. You are basically taxing the consumers.

It makes no sense to have corporation tax.

Edit: changed my argument a bit.
