Apple paid about $7,000,000,000 in taxes to the US govt last year.
Is that a fair enough share for you?
Lets see...
Last year Apple made $234 billion in revenue and is based in the US.
Federal tax rates are 35% for anything exceeding $335,000 per year.
In addition, Apple is based in California, with a business tax rate of 8.84%.
If Apple were held to the same standards as smaller corporations their taxes due in 2015 would have been $102.5 billion in the US alone.
$7 billion is much less than $102.5 billion - in fact they only paid 6.8% of the taxes they should have paid in the US if held to the same standards as the little guys.
So no, they have not remotely paid their fare share and to top it off they outsource a good chunk of their production. Face it, if Apple "paid their fair share" they wouldn't exist, they piss away too much money on social causes aimed at crushing competition. The fact one of those causes finally came back to bite them in the ass is hysterical, if not for the fact it still fucks over the smaller corporations who aren't filled with incompetent evil globalists.
Wait, I thought that liberals like Cook were all for gouging those eeebil corporations and making them pay their fair share? If he was being consistent, he'd be happy to pay and then ask, "thank you sir, may I have another?"
Big companies are able to skirt those laws, gouging the evil corporations only really impacts small-mid size businesses (aka, their competition.) This is one of the first instances of it coming back to bite them in the ass, hopefully it bites all their asses until we only have small-mid size businesses left.
Musk is clearly not driving his engineer slave labor camp hard enough - 90 hours a week? Fucking peasants can get a full night's sleep on 112/week and half the salary because they won't even need to spend it on anything!
That's not the case here. Plenty of people (pretty much everyone) got approved for Zika blood testing. Theranos didn't get approved because they are scammers.
If they had used PKI Encryption and Digital Signatures, technology that has been available for DECADES, they could have authenticated that message properly and prevented spoofing. To be performing transfers based on unauthenticated email is absurd.
Secure crypto tools are illegal to export overseas and there's a good chance they are running Windows. Open source tools don't suffer the same issue, but they do lack a huge amount of the business-specific features needed for an enterprise that large (not to suggest it's impossible, but it's practically impossible given the small number of people capable of operating an open source enterprise scale environment and the number of them needed to keep it running.)
There is plenty of room for the FDA to ease up on experimental medicine, but I've got to assume you're either a very competent troll or a marketing shill. Theranos doesn't do anything new, they in fact pretend to do the same thing as everyone else cheaper, while not doing it at all. They are marketing people who decided their next scam should be in healthcare, aka: the ultimate scum of Humanity.
At worst it's in the averagely evil bracket. I could name a significantly more evil company for any given definition of evil. Also, have you seen Apple's cash reserves? They could take a fine this size in every major trading bloc in the world (EU, BRICS, African trade bloc that I can't remember the name of, NAFTA) and consider it cash lost down the back of the sofa.
It's a bit over 15% of their cash reserves, not nearly enough but other EU countries will likely do the same thing shortly - it could hurt Apple pretty significantly over time along with the other multinationals getting away with it. But even if it's 15% and the EU does it with ever other multinational in the area as they stated they intend to - that's 15% off the coffers of all the old-money liberal extremists ruining society with their propaganda and brainwashing. 15% less "social justice" and "political correctness" might not be everything but damn if it won't make the life of nearly everyone reading this thread better.
No there's no equivalence, it's like a clinically retarded evil gorilla in a world of ants stomping on competent evil ant, because he's an ant not because he's evil. The former can destroy the world, in which the latter is but a role player. Seriously. It's fucking Europe against a company.
It's all about a cut. A continental gangster. Be afraid.
In your analogy it would me much more akin to the retarded evil gorilla stomping on a colony of ants existing in a parasitic relationship with the other ants but a symbiotic relationship with a large number of the bannana trees available to the gorilla. Does it help the other ants? No. Will the retarded evil gorilla keep stomping on ants? Yes, until he stomps on all the ants otherwise protecting the bannana trees and starves to death himself. Retarded evil gorillas cannot subsist on ants alone, they need bannanas.
This is government corruption of the highest order and for all of you high-fiving what a wonderful day this is against corporate overreach realize the EU will NOT spend this money on the people or social services but use it to further ingratiate their power base.
It absolutely is, but it is one clinicly retarded evil globalist entity taking resources from a competent evil globalist entity. It's an overall win because the EU will piss it away on social causes, in fact if other EU states follow the same routine it could bankrupt Apple and then a whole host of issues like Apple's slave labor of highschool students in China will go away. Hopefully every multinational corporation gets hit by this stuff, giving the EU funds to piss away for a half decade or decade is a very minor evil to tolerate for the destruction of sustainable evil entities.
It's one of the more evil multinational megacorps getting hit with fees, which if done elsewhere could bankrupt it. This is great, especially love Tim Cook's crocodile tears.
Is probably much more in the realm of "it's going to take us x time to code this thing to check for the pass subscription with each attempt and it will bog down the network y amount to make that check every time the user tries to load a video but it will only z time to stick the check in the calls which already talk to the server specifically to handle the passes" than it is "some nefarious marketing and sales shit which doesn't make any sense and will only piss people off."
Energy saving is just the start, eventually they aim to take the excess gas produced by their customers in much the same manner as the "cow backpacks" aimed at extracting methane from cows to fuel an actual power plant. Step 1 is getting people comfortable with thermostats and smoke detectors which stream their every action out via wifi, once the customer base accepts that it's a relatively minor step to shoving tubes up their asses and using them as a fuel source.
What a coincidence that would be... the closest star to ours. I think we just found the home of the Greys. Retribution will follow swiftly.
Nah, it's just the easiest to detect. Most likely Earth is far from unique in terms of being a rocky planet about its size in the Goldilocks zone and much more alone (if at all) in the realm of "not getting hit by moon-sized objects frequently; with a moon in a stable nearly circular orbit to mix the liquid up via tides without causing widespread flooding and catch incoming mid-size asteroids; not being bombarded with x-rays due to the type of star or being too close to the center of a galaxy and getting bombarded with gamma rays; with a gas giant in a stable orbit just the right distance away to catch bigger rocks, etc.
Another alternative of course is simply that any culture advanced enough to travel the stars is also experienced enough to know multiculturalism destroys every culture involved and wants no part of it.
Oh and the last change to how unemployment figures were reported was in 1994. Just so you know, that's more than a decade before Obama was even a US senator. So to blame him for this is quite rich.
Aside from the fact that's either uninformed or a lie (it's the internet so who knows which of the two,) are you saying the Clintons are to blame?
Where are all these unemployed white men you speak of?
Not the AC, but the employment figures have been horribly misrepresented since Obama took office. They've eliminated people unemployed for more than 6 or 12 months (I forget which offhand) as "not seeking employment", they've eliminated the 18-25 age group as "students" (unless they have a job, in which case they get counted,) they've eliminated the 60+ group as "retired," anyone on disability, anyone employed for any time period (even not 40 hours/livable timespans,) and a few other gotchas. To top it all off even with all the rigging unemployment isn't at 0% or a negative percentage under that ranking system.

They should tack on an execution sentence of all Apple execs while they're at it, to discourage others from trying to set up corrupt deals.

How much of the hype behind this company centered on the fact that its leader was a young, attractive, blonde woman from Stanford?
Don't knock blondes, it's just everyone from Stanford that is a shiesty scammer with no morals or competence.

It will be ready, one day, but people shouldn't mistake the feature with "fully autonomous driving" until then.
Yeah, there are four key steps to making the tech ready:
These untimely crashes clearly go against step 3.
City-dwellers are non-people and therefore cannot "own" land.
Texas and ISIS are the only places in the world where you can just shoot down anybody who enters "your" property.
Depends how good you are at disposing of the body after.

You're confusing Republican small business owners with Liberal pot-smoking hippies. HAARP isn't one of the conspiracies the right wing believe in.
