Large corporations not paying taxes is bad, because it means society has less money to pay for things.

That is very different from companies paying less money to a multi trillion dollar company. Companies paying less to a multi trillion dollar company is a good thing.

It is dishonest to equate that to necessary government services being underfunded.

Lower costs are good. So no, I reject that this is bad for small developers.

It is most bad for apple, as they get less money.

> Tough luck

There is no tough luck. Smaller developers can continue to pay the same amount as they were paying before.



How hard it is to understand that I am talking about small business potentially getting disadvantaged by all this?

It’s so frustrating.


They are not disadvantaged by it, as they get access to the same deals that they had in the past.

The only different is that now, some companies, have the ability of no longer having to pay large amounts of money to a multi-trillion dollar company (apple).

That is a win.

The fact that less companies have to pay many millions and millions of dollars, to one of the most valuable companies in the world, is a win.

And small companies, still have access to the same exact programs that they had before.
