Irrelevant, since
a) the EU is not a Common Law jurisdiction; and
b) the Commission can issue binding orders.

The closest analogue in Common Law countries would be a quasi-judicial 
administrative law tribunal.

Ireland is trying to wiggle out of the binding order re: Apple's tax 
obligations.

None of that makes "Slimer's" claims into truth.

What this boils down to is GREED. The EC/EU doesn't actually CARE about 
this as a matter of principle: they care because they want the MONEY.

You call it unethical but you would do it anyway.
You are the weakest link.  Good-bye.

I honestly don't care who pays or doesn't pay American taxes as I
would never get the chance to benefit from them. I only care about the
truth.

I wouldn't go so far as to call them dumb people but they are people 
who like the Apple culture, prefer the ease of use right from the moment 
they take the system out of the box and so forth.
And Apple support is number one by far.

People are willing to pay extra for that.
That being said, there is nothing magical about Apple hardware or 
software for that matter with one exception and that is it is all 
controlled tightly (although that seems to be fading a bit with the last 
updates) so it tends to work well together.

As long as Apple isn't doing anything illegal, they would be doing their 
shareholders a disservice if they were paying more taxes than legally 
required.

The same goes for Trump BTW.
What kind of an idiot doesn't try to reduce his taxes LEGALLY by using 
every line in the tax code to his advantage?

Every single one of us in USA does it every year.
Key word LEGALLY.

People pay more for tools that let them get things done better.

Linux does not help people as well on the desktop so even for free it is not used much.

Sure. Trump noted it was not his fault but a broken system, then he wants to become president to help the wealthy pay even less.

His fucking moronic followers suck up his every word. And his dick.

yep.

<https://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Learned_Hand>
  Billings Learned Hand (January 27, 1872 ­ August 18, 1961), usually
  called simply Learned Hand, was an American judge famous as an avid
  supporter of free speech and for applying economic reasoning to
  American tort law. He is noted as one of the most influential
  American judges to have never served on the Supreme Court of the
  United States.

...

  € Any one may so arrange his affairs that his taxes shall be as low
  as possible; he is not bound to choose that pattern which will best
  pay the Treasury; there is not even a patriotic duty to increase
  one's taxes.
  € Helvering v. Gregory, 69 F.2d 809, 810-11 (2d Cir. 1934).

...

  € Over and over again courts have said that there is nothing sinister
  in so arranging one's affairs as to keep taxes as low as possible.
  Everybody does so, rich or poor; and all do right, for nobody owes
  any public duty to pay more than the law demands: taxes are enforced
  exactions, not voluntary contributions. To demand more in the name of
  morals is mere cant.
  € Commissioner v. Newman, 159 F2d 848 (1947).

Hehehe... even Hillary uses the tax code to her advantage.  She wrote

off of his radio network.

I am not an Apple user (my wife is because two of our kids use facetime).

However, I am grateful to Apple for something they DID 'invent' - CUPS.
The Common Unix Printing System which (as far as I know) every Linux desktop 
uses for printing.

No need to thank me :)

Idiot.

No need to thank Apple, either, since they did not invent CUPS.
