16%. Niiiice.
- twoodfin 6y agoAdd sales taxes on their products, payroll taxes on their employees, capital gain taxes on the dividends they issue.... and Apple is generating much more than 16% of their profits in government revenue vs. a world where Tim Cook closes up shop tomorrow.
- sil80to 6y agoIndeed - tax the little man from all angles, not the big corporation.
- jtbayly 6y agoTaxing the little man vs the big man is not Apple’s decision. Talk to your senator about that.
- sil80to 6y agoI am aware, and I don't disagree. I don't even begrudge Apple for using this amazing tax scheme - they'd be foolish not to. But the argument that they're paying enough because they enable the government to milk everyone else in other ways seems entirely wrong.
- dfxm12 6y agoThey did choose to move to a tax haven though, while still going out of their way to to market themselves as being from California. It sucks they want to reap the benefits of being an American company without sowing their share.

- chii 6y ago> Add sales taxes on their products, payroll taxes on their employees these taxes are not taxes on apple (the company). They do not count towards a company's taxes paid.
