Why do the left wing socialists of America abhor the Koch Bros. but love a company like Apple?
I don't even think Koch is publicly traded on wall street. So what makes Apple such a good company and Koch bad in the socialists eyes? What are the differences? Philanthropy? Facts?
Not only does Apple outsource its manufacturing to slave-labor factories
in Asia, and not only does Apple carefully structure its tax status to avoid
paying Federal and State taxes (both of these are enormously documented facts),
but Apple also places its development centers in Israel. These large centers in
Israel (3 of them) are not even in a cheaper country. They are jobs which
could be in America. Apple to expanded Israeli operations with Ra'anana facility
I don't see Libs singing the praises of Apple and comparing the two does not even seem logical because it is what the Koch brothers do with their money that is the issue with some Libs. I just do not see the comparison as valid to begin with so I doubt many others will either hence no replies.
I think the principle of this comparison is insightful, but maybe that is just me. And I am okay with that. Thinking objectively is not in everyone's deck of cards apparently.

And Koch?

The true story paints a picture of Koch Industries’ long history of job losses and outsourcing, resulting in nearly 3,000 American jobs sent overseas.

Apple is a ruthless company that outsourced many jobs and exployts workers in China. They are the same as other corporations. But I don't think many people (liberals?) like apple the company. Maybe their products.
