While I would definitely entertain extreme tax tiers at high revenue limits (like $10B/yr), it is important to note that there is value in Apple making money. There are a lot of jobs created between the $10B and $1T levels. And as citizens of Apple's home nation, it greatly benefits us that those high-quality jobs are available. A 100% tax (or even 80%) tax would discourage a lot of products from existing. Apple would probably move down to simply offering just phones and apps only and removing everything else. I know that sounds good in theory, but there are indirect benefits for these other services that they offer, in addition to jobs. It also bolster's California's economy all the way down to bodegas, bars, restaurants, and hobby shops. So an alternative tax like 60% on revenues above $50B that can not be deducted against might be a more reasonable alternative.
