What if iPhone is built in the US due to charging high tariff for imports

My $29 phone has a Corning Gorilla glass display the same size as the Iphone-6, the battery on my cheapo phone is nearly 3 X's larger than the Iphone and rivals it big time when you look at every spec.

$29 and a 2 year contract?
 
No contract - you can use it on Sprint prepaid but don't have to. I bought one for my sister so she can surf the web via WIFI and use Skype for phone service.
 
They're more efficient though, it's say you get about the same amount of screen on time despite the smaller batterys.

Gf's just got a 7plus, I'll have a look when nearly flat what kinda in use time she's getting between charges.

No, not really. Talk and standby are lower for same size models compared to my Xiaomi Mi3. With screen on the Plus models are also worse. Not sure how you figure they're more efficient.
 
So if the IRS wants Apple to pay, they should agree that the same applies in other countries, but there they have a different opinion. US companies should pay in the US, but not in Europe. US government is raising pressure on Europe to avoid a heayvy taxation of Apple in Ireland. If it would be in the US they would have to pay, in Europe not.

If they would reduce the top tax rate for citizens as well as companies, businesses would not be compelled to participate in financial shenanigans.
 
It's a stupidity and populism for idiots. Everyone with the smallest economic knowledge understands that. It will lead to the end of Apple. Even Trump undstands that.

Bringing back manufacturing back to the U.S. would make the U.S. non-competitive. Trying to take the country back a few decades in business and a century in human rights is not going to work. The stock market has always done the best when neither party has complete control of the house. Trump is an expert in how to drive the least likely businesses to fail into bankruptcies, than using bail out money to pose as a rich billionaire while he works out his next long con.

Yes on Trump Con man for sure!!

Stock Market is basically rubbish, it's meaningless, too much of business decisions is based around this, companys making good profits, want more to grow there shares values, at the expense of there staff, which in turn becomes the expense of the company, as pissed off workers don't work at there best.

Although I don't mind making money from it, the entire system should be scrapped.
