As usual, you do your best to cast things in the worst possible light for Apple. Doom and gloom is your modus operandi. Apple's got, last I checked ~$180 billion in cash, part of which is overseas. All that would happen if this passed would be that Apple would pay a 14% tax on the overseas cash immediately, which Apple can quite easily afford. Even if Apple had *all* of that cash overseas, the total bill would be $25 billion. Apple made $18 billion just in Q4 2014. I see no "real trouble" here. But you sure do! Because it's what you do. You'll probably turn to your next trick and attempt to inject "if"s and "but"s into the mix, doing your best to create fear, uncertainty, and doubt from thin air, matching your aforementioned modus operandi - namely: spreading FUD. I can already hear you saying, "if Apple does x, doom & gloom, or if Apple does y, insert tragedy here". Keep on spouting bullshit if you feel you must, but know that your silly game will continue to have zero effect on Apple's long-term success. -- E-mail sent to this address may be devoured by my ravenous SPAM filter.
