I personally wouldn't count app developers as jobs. If anything they created 1.5 million unemployable people.

Because this is just a huge PR stunt to take away the attention from the tax evasion fiasco they got themselves into.

They literally owe BILLIONS in unpaid taxes.

And as always they won't deliver just like when tim cuck promised to not provide the FBI a backdoor to apple products despite there already being one the FBI used later.

>They literally owe BILLIONS in unpaid taxes.
Unless the IRS is auditing them for those "unpaid" taxes they "owe" they don't actually owe anything. Much of their tax avoidance is because of loopholes and provisions that allow them to do it such as subsidary companies using other countries to move money. Its why Luxembourg is such a lucrative country despite having a really high tax bracket

Government is underfunded.

The mactoddler cuck mentality:

>>60220213
Just because it's a federal program doesn't mean it's social welfare.

CPB is a big example of this. PBS and NPR are vital information sources for many people, especially in places where NPR is literally the only feasible place to receive news (in remote areas such as some Alaskan regions). Without PBS, we'd never had Sesame Street and many educational programs for children; research has shown educational TV notably improves educational outcomes versus children who don't. This is also very important for poor families who potentially cannot afford pre-schooling.

PBS also provides many informative documentaries and general programs that are a welcome sight in the age of reality TV and mockumenaries.

The National Endowment for the Arts, literally 0.013% of our federal spending, provides a boost for art education and local agencies that feature dance, theater, etc.

These programs are struggling for funding, but yet are a modicum in the larger context. The missing 8 billion dollars Apple excuses itself from via loopholes can be a direct lifeline in saving these programs.

>it's automatically assumed Chinkshit will destroy your home
Electronic devices spontaneously combusting is not a common occurrence. It happens more often with Apple devices, and to a certain extent Samsung devices, because of their choice of materials to use in batteries (Lithium Polymer vs Lithium Ion). Apple also has a tendency to try to make their devices as thin as possible without any consideration to how to cool them. Hence, Macbook Pros turn into hot plates fairly quickly if put under any sort of work. Imagine -- all of that heat, transferred throughout a thin aluminum chassis, with a battery prone to spontaneous combustion.
