By creating subsidiaries in tax havens like Ireland, Luxembourg, the British Virgin Islands and the Netherlands, the company saves billions in taxes.IOW, buy Apple stock -- particularly if you're happy when someone figures out how to stick it to the feds. :')
One big problem: the per share price of Apple is so high that it's hard for many smaller investors to buy it in the usual amounts of 100 shares. Maybe there is some reason that they let the per share price go so high without a stock split.
Stick it to the feds? Not sure about that. Don't know this for a fact, but my intuitive guess would be that Apple's board of directors (like many big tech companies) is composed of a majority of Democrats.
