I said in "ideal case" and not in general case and I was only emphasizing why the government attitude that Apple owes US government something is wrong. As far as public infrastructure etc. is concerned only a minuscule portion of over taxes get spent on actual government functions such as protection of property rights and Liberty. Most of the money is currently going in wars we cant win or end, military junk and welfare. If I had a choice I would pay government to run a police force and courts but not for these things. US gov already gets sufficient tax money to run its basic business. I would appreciate if the cut their spending instead of stealing money from me and Apple.
