They paid income tax on the profits (at least the profits earned in the USA). Apple was the number one tax payer on the list by a wide margin. Are they supposed to be taxed on their bank balances also?
- justherefortart 9y agoThey ship a lot of those USA profits to Ireland because that's where they shipped all their "intellectual property". It's either ignorant or disingenuous to say that Apple paid the proper tax on their US income. It's a wonderfully "liberal" scam they've got going.

- seanmcdirmid 9y agoWell, SAP also paid income taxes on USA profits, but not those generated e.g. in the EU. So what?
