So what? I still see no real trouble, as you assert.

The cash will accumulate elsewhere. Still not seeing this real trouble
you claim to see. How will accumulating money someplace else cause Apple
"real trouble"?

A 14% tax is not a "huge share", so I fail to see how dividends will be
eliminated or curtailed significantly. I see no "real problem" here
either.

(Your cute term "piggy banks" doesn't go unnoticed. Troll on though, if
