< Think different >, especially on tax forms.QUOTE Apple's tax strategies have come under harsh scrutiny after it was revealed it used technicalities in Irish and US law to pay little or no corporate taxes on income of $US74 billion over the past four years. Google, Amazon and non-technology multinationals such as Starbucks have also come under fire over their tax strategies. I am unaware what he's trying to get at with these two sentences here. QUOTE "You won't find many people who are for a tax. It's easier to be for spending than it is to be for a tax. "So I applaud anyone who is brave enough to get criticised for being for the mechanism that has to raise some amount of revenue to perform these functions." No shit and fuck you, respectively. |
