I don’t know whether to feel sorry for Ireland, or not. Seems like some serious jobs may be on the line if Apple loses that, and other overseas tax sanctuaries.

What do you think — was Apple merely working within the confines of the laws all corporate businesses can legally follow, or did their team of lawyers and financial advisers just find a way to bury their shady tactics for over 20 years?
