I Am Tired of America

US Business Roundtable group has sent a letter to the leaders of the 28 EU countries warning they of a 'grievous self-inflicted' wound if the sanctions imposed on Apple for tax avoidance are not overturned.

The EU is threating sovereign countries.
Ireland said Apple paid what was diue.
It's between the EU and member states

@ImAFreeSpirit: Ireland did not agree with the sanctions because they prefer to go on with their unfair competition policy to set really low taxes to corporations.
I hate the EU, but in this I am with them, we cannot allow corporations to rule the world. That's why I totally oppose TTIP and politicians who support it

It,s still between The EU and Ireland.
Apple paid what Ireland said.....What company would pay more?

Cierzo · M

@ImAFreeSpirit: EU said Apple should pay more to Ireland. So far Ireland is in the EU and corporations operating there should adjust to EU regulations. If Apple does not agree with them, they should look for a different country to operate from.

And that is what they will do.
