If you’re going to rob someone, you pick a victim with the most cash if you can. Robbing the poor makes no sense (although that’s what we’re supposed to believe made the United States rich).
What most large corporations will do is try to appease the leftists in Washington, but that only prolongs the pain and encourages the looters. If they were half smart, they’d target one douchebag politician (but I repeat myself) at a time and smear them untill they’re railroaded out of office, making examples of them each in turn. A good offense is the best defense. But no– they try to play along, thinking themselves wise for doing so.

Because the colluded w/ suppliers to set the price, creating a cartel.

Yeah.. Collusion with suppliers for a fixed price is generally what every corporation does when they by bulk parts….

The problem is that Apple demanded that they be the only ones to get that deal.
Personally, I think anti-trust laws are a crock. But they are on the books.

The ultimate sin.
They have a lot of cash that they’re not giving to politicians.
