So, Congressmorons are pissed off because Apple has (legally) used tax loopholes to get out of paying lots of taxes on its gazillions of dollars it has made by being a successful company that’s grown the American way. The Congressmorons are pissed off, because they want that money for themselves. To go squander and then act as if they’ve done us all some great SERVICE for doing so.
Duh.
In fact, Sens. John McCain (R-AZ) and Carl Levin (D-MI) criticized the company for successfully seeking “the holy grail of tax avoidance.”
But Rand Paul? Well, he sees the whole tax thing differently. He sees it like a lot of Americans who aren’t Congressmorons-in-expensive-suits, actually…
…And then Paul rubbed salt in the wound – on Twitter – when he said, “Apple has done more to enrich people’s lives than politicians will ever do.”…
Read the whole thing.
CAJ note: Don’t you want to ask McCain and Levin just who the heck they think writes these hideous tax laws in the first place? BTW, they’re all exploiting the very same tax laws Apple is using.
Geez, this DC hypocrisy is getting old…
McRino is increasingly becoming the poster child for term limits:
Speaking on Senate floor on Thursday, a fed-up Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) scolded Sen. Mike Lee (R-Utah) over his objection to initiating House-Senate budget negations unless a debt limit increase is taken off the table. It’s a stance shared by another Tea Party favorite, Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas).
McCain lectured Lee over such a proposal, saying it would “paralyze the process.”…
Yeah. And that’s the problem. Time to go home to Arizona, Sir…
