You would never guess that Apple, the darling of the left, is avoiding paying taxes. In fact, they have set the standard for other companies to avoid paying taxes.
Apple has set up their operations in states that have low or no corporate income taxes. Yes, Apple, the darling of the left, is avoiding taxes. Well, why not, they are after all a company and their goal is to make a profit. Taxes are cost, and costs cut into profit.

I had the opportunity to attend the Mitty Challenge at Road Atlanta this weekend. Barbara and I went last year and had a really good time. The Mitty is sports car racing on the excellent and challenging road course at Road Atlanta.
Barbara was getting over the flu this weekend and didn’t want to spend the day at the races. So, my friend Kim came met me that and we enjoyed the day. The racing was good. We found a good spot to set up our chairs and watch the qualifying and the races. Not only did we watch the races, I signed up for the Track Tour when you get the opportunity to drive on the track during the lunch break. That was a lot of fun, to get out on the road course with the Corvette. Here’s a photo of me and my friend Kim circulating around turn one at Road Atlanta.

We had a good day watching the races, touring the track and eating BBQ !
This story comes under the category of “I did not know that!” Shortly after the end of WWII, veterans returning home to Athens Tennessee from the war were appalled with the corruption in their local government. When the local officials realized that there was a growing opposition to their reign of corruption, they tried to seize the ballot boxes from the local election. The veterans took over and righted the situation. Below is a video depicting the events of that day.
Now I know why the government, both local and national, is so motivated to disarm the public. A armed public makes is much harder for true Tierney to exist.

Your US Attorney General, Eric Holder, thinks you and your kids need their brain washed, to make them think differently about guns. He wants to use the media and schools to “Brainwash” young people to change them into anti-gun activists!
This video was from a speech to a woman’s group in 1995. Obviously Mr. Holder has held these feelings for a long time and I am going to guess, by his actions like the ATF program “Fast and Furious”, that he still believes in extreme measures in order to promote gun control and confiscation. This man, and your President, are enemies of the Second Amendment. Make no mistake, they are out to disarm Americans. What their ultimate goal is, well, I think you can guess.
I found this video on Breitbart TV. We will surely miss Andrew and his fearless pursuit of the truth.

He says “we can build a nation where everybody gets a fair shot…” I thought we have a country where everybody has a fair shot. No other country in the world provides an individual the opportunity to excel that America does. Now, that is not to say that one doesn’t have to work hard to succeed, and that an opportunity will guarantee success. But nowhere else on earth is there a better place to try to make your personal dream come true. But your President doesn’t think so, he thinks that he needs to fix it.
I think I will start a “White Boys for Neut” or “Uppies for Mitt” and see how that flies!
