Bolded: Worst example ever.

You see, Apple has an ever-growing pile of over 80 billions in cash that they don't even know what to spend them on. Taxing them for billions of dollars would just help them figure out what to do with all that cash - in this case paying their fair share of taxes for once. And t wouldn't affect any of their daily activities in any negative way. But greedy people gotta greed...

Pay taxes to the government so they can waste even more money? That won't help in the long run. Also, they will use their money eventually when the next big thing comes along. Just like how a lot of tech companies are invest in AI.

Obviously not all money going into taxes is a waste since a lot of it goes back into supporting the community in some way.

Making a blanket statement about tax money not being used properly is not a good argument. 

These companies have so much money, they don't even know what to do with it most of the time. The will still have more than plenty after taxes to keep investing in AI or whatever they want.
