Bernie Sanders, a candidate for the Democratic nomination for President of the United States, was asked if Apple is destroying the fabric of America in an interview with the Daily News Editorial Board. Sanders said that Apple was not but he wished they would manufacture in America and stop trying to avoid paying taxes.
Daily News: You’ve said that the greed of Wall Street and corporate America is destroying the fabric of our nation. So if we can get particular: For example, in corporate America, Apple happens to be celebrating, today, its 40th birthday. It's a company that grew from nothing to 115,000 permanent employees. And I'm wondering, is Apple destroying the fabric of America?
Bernie Sanders: No, Apple is not destroying the fabric of America. But I do wish they'd be manufacturing some of their devices, here, in the United States rather than in China. And I do wish that they would not be trying to avoid paying their fair share of taxes.
His comments are similar to Donald Trump's, who said "We're going to get Apple to start building their damn computers and things in this country instead of in other countries."
