Austin replied to Neil's discussion Need advice.
"What you are talking about is pretty typical. It sounds like you are both in what I call an infatuation phase. Being in love at this point in a relationship is like a chemical addiction. There is no good way to balance without being in at least a…"

This is a stick-up! Now hand over your profits!

http://www.cbc.ca/news/world/story/2013/05/21/business-apple.htmlCan someone with more knowledge on the matter explain this one to me? The US Senate is now berating one of the biggest economic drivers in the US over choosing to not repatriate overseas profits in to their wormhole of a tax system.
