Its because cash doesn't generate interest. Also, you are also confusing 2 different things: tax differences between income and capital gains, and the tax dodging schemes the rich use for consumption. The first thing is about keeping capital in the US where it is taxed. The second thing completely doesn't matter as 99.9% of the wealthy's assets will never be used for consumption. You can close that loophole but it changes nothing. Even if the rich don't find a new loophole, the amount of tax generated would be a rounding error.

Your own self-loathing aside but do you seriously think that just throwing random insults and showing complete and total ignorance of accounting, taxes, economic systems and general life is a good look? You don't even bother to give an argument, you just throw insults. Here is the truth, you are a selfish loser who will never accomplish anything and so you want to take from those that do. Now fuck off...

Apple sells luxury products. Who cares if the polishing cloth is $19? Wait till you see how much Porsche charges.

Porsche only sells luxury products, though they've occasionally flirted with lesser machines they're above that now, and their highest end vehicles are among the very best in the world. Apple sells everything from mass market up to medium expensive, but if you want the most powerful machine in the fanciest case, Apple has absolutely nothing for you. They are not even vaguely in the running, they aren't anywhere near it, they can't even see it from where they are.

There was always zero chance of Hamas not attacking. It's all they ever think about.

Hamas didn't even exist until after decades of colonial violence. They didn't spring up out of nowhere. Don't talk about thinking until you try doing some. Or would you just bend over under the same circumstances?

You seem to think that the rich have giant piles of cash somewhere.

OK, where the fuck is the tiny car? Every time I bring this up some joker pops up to tell me that the wealthy don't have the piles of effective cash they actually do have, in unprecedented amounts, that people who can read are aware of. They then often follow it up sucking their dicks about how they deserve to run off with all the fucking money that they got through an assortment of nefarious bullshit that these cucks are in denial about.

What the fuck do you get out of bending over and spreading your asshole for the rich every time someone mentions that their hoarding is negatively affecting others? Does it make you feel warm in the tum-tum to fantasize about them noticing you? Because if they ever do, they probably won't even waste the time for a derisive snort, you shitstain of a sycophantic snotsucker.

It is in fact insane for anyone to have claimed that Apple would fail for a long time now, because they have huge stacks of cash and huge investments. Apple has more actual cash than almost anyone, they can literally pay their bills for a long time without having to do anything other than authorize payments.

Apple also has big stupid inertia like Microsoft used to have, where people just assumed competence. And they have more technical competence than Microsoft ever did, at least in their domain, and a demonstrated ability to capitalize. Now that they have their own competitive CPU (again, in their domain) they are actually a force again like they used to be.

If they ever get their CPUs to scale up to the really high end, they could genuinely dominate. That's irritating given how much they lock everything down, though.

This was a company that once charged $19 for a polishing cloth, asked $200 for a VESA mount, and sold $700 wheels for the Mac Pro. Now it's borrowing tired ideas from its competitors and launching hardware its previous leaders rejected.

Apple did not invent the wheel.

Comment Engagement bait (Score 1) 70

This post is low effort engagement bait. Apple hasn't done anything out of the ordinary. The only questionable choice is that silly touch screen and that's harmless enough. Most of their energy right now is focused on their processors and seeing if they can get in on controlling all of AI and the massive automation push coming from that but that's what every single tech company on the planet is doing.

Nothing to see here just lazy rage bait and that comes from somebody who is not really much of a fan of Apple

They didn't invent the wheel, either.

You seem to think that the rich have giant piles of cash somewhere. Generally this isn't true, instead it is stored in large quantities of stock or other assets. Also, regular people save money too in much the same way. So your idea about consumption being the only way money can "do work" just isn't true. Also, if the rich spent their money like you seem to want, all it would do is drive up prices of luxury assets which creates yet another bubble. Basically, your entire idea just isn't how the world actually works and I don't see how it translates to actual public policy in any way that doesn't cause a huge financial crisis. In truth, you just don't like something about your life and so you choose to blame nebulous "others" instead of looking at yourself and why you aren't happy. Also, grifting on grievance politics is quite profitable lately. Maybe you should go on X and make some cash with your trolling instead of bothering us here.
