Episode 288: Episode 288: Tariffs, Amazon, Apple and Expatriated Taxes, et al

ModState.com

Re-emerged from their work behind the scenes, audio engineer Edmund Matuk III (Crazy Eddie) and Jon David (Jack) DeViney returns to review the tariffs at center stage. Along the way, Amazon, Microsoft, Elon Musk and, ah, yes, most certainly Apple come under renewed scrutiny. Save the "God bless America"'s and "Assembled in CA" crap and bring your jobs home (and let people pay $8,000 for a new iPhone assembled by Americans) and bring home your ex-patriated taxes before we bring them home for you. If civilians face the death penalty and we treat corporations like people, then we posit that any Firm refusing to bring their tax dollars home should face revocation of corporate charter and seizure of assets.
Otherwise, the plan has no teeth if Cook just backslaps his way to a special deal. No, we've had enough deals for mega-corporations. Ayn Rand novels are fun to read, not to live in, thank you kindly.
Mind you, this is a very pro-capitalism publication. But constrained, responsible capitalism that doesn't operate under the false assumption that there's no obligation to our society, to America, Her Republic and Her People. Again, if we're to treat corporations like people, then so be it.
Do the right thing, be heroes, and bring your jobs and tax dollars home. Just like Americans were willing to destroy our manufacturing sector in favor of cheaper prices at Walmart, the inverse must prove true now: we're willing to pay more in order for it to be made in 'Merica. Otherwise, what is all the uproar about? Let's have a plan and give it teeth, or else stop the nonsense.
