This.
And as I posted as a response in another thread:
This is 10 years of unpaid taxes where Apple has exploited the system and only paid 50 euros for every 1,000,000 euros profit.
How is that fair competition towards companies that've paid the normal tax rate? In Ireland the tax rate is 12.5%. Far from what Apple has paid.
As the most valuable company in the world I think it's time for Apple to show a little responsibility.
Besides, I think Apple will survive
