    thanks to Apple I am going to start calling paying my taxes an “investment” in the US economy
  • @stevekovach Steve Kovach on x
    Apple's math on how it plans to add $350 billion to the economy is fuzzy at best. But one solid number in the announcement: New customer service office and 20,000 new jobs http://www.businessinsider.com/ ...
  • @asymco Horace Dediu on x
    Apple, already the largest US taxpayer, anticipates repatriation tax payments of approximately $38 billion— the largest tax payment ever made.

    Republicans are tweeting this one out a wholeeeee bunch today http://twitter.com/...
  • @tonyromm Tony Romm on x
    But the thing with Apple's announcement is that now Amazon, Google, Microsoft and others in the tech industry are going to face pressure to announce similar new commitments

    Apple doing stuff that it has had the money to do for literally years and crediting the GOP tax bill is the peak of disingenuousness http://twitter.com/...

    Apple doesn't need tax cuts to pay employees roughly $310 million in stock. Apple generates that much cash in 42 hours. https://www.bloomberg.com/...
  • @jason @jason on x
    Excellent article on the repatriation of Apple's cash; objectively, this is a huge victory for @realDonaldTrump & candidly, all Americans — and something @BarackObama couldn't get done. http://www.asymco.com/...
  • @realdonaldtrump Donald J. Trump on x
    I promised that my policies would allow companies like Apple to bring massive amounts of money back to the United States. Great to see Apple follow through as a result of TAX CUTS. Huge win for American workers and the USA! http://www.cnbc.com/...
  • @jyarow Jay Yarow on x
    It looks like Apple is bringing back home nearly all of its $250 billion in foreign cash http://www.cnbc.com/...
