Companies don't pay taxes. They pass them off to the customers.
You may be a troll, but I see this argument in real life so I will respond to it.
That is true, but does not help at all. In this case, Apple customers are getting cheaper products at the expense of the rest of the tax payers who pay for the public services that Apple takes advantage of. You see what happened? Tax evasion still costs money. It's just that it's the people who don't buy Apple products that end up paying the cost of Apple's tax evasion.
TL;DR: Tax evasion and government subsidies are functionally the same. I don't want the government subsidizing Apple.
