James Webb scope is not the same as Hubble

It's IR. Uses a gold coated mirror. The images are going to be different.

Talking of fool's gold: You could have hundreds of James Webb telescopes if Rotten Apple and the other large US tech companies paid a minute fraction of their taxes. Not paying taxes is a direct subsidy by the US government. Who gave them permission to pick and choose who should pay any taxes? Eeny-meeny-miny-mo the poor pay taxes but the rich..? A big fat zero! What a way to run a 3rd world country, eh, Rich? ;-)

If you believe them to be violating tax laws, tell us how they are doing that.

When the tax game is fixed y'all don't need no rules.spit

Y'all just need a bunch of corrupt politic-ooze with deep, offshore pockets.

So you admit that they aren't violating any laws.

Next: Why should a company bring back overseas profits, if it didn't need to use that money in the US?

Next: How much tax revenue would the US see on sales that were subject to the fair tax?

Chris.B:

Shows what you know about the Corporate States of America. "After all,
the chief business of the American people is business." --President
Calvin Coolidge's address to the American Society of Newspaper Editors,
Washington D.C., January 25, 1925. You can easily find the full
context. There was nothing in his remarks about fairness, subsidies, or
the like.

Compared to welfare being paid to the able-bodied, it's a drop in the bucket.

Another symptom of a broken economic system intended to maximize inequality and keep the workforce afraid of job losses to ensure a low wage, constant job shortage economy. Greening the US at the same rate as India and China are presently doing would provide millions of real jobs. Though at the expense of a miserable few multi-billionaires who commit treason daily to ensure their obscene wealth at the health and expense of their own countrymen. Aliens or sociopaths? Waste your vote now on the establishment politic-ooze who have an offshore economic interest in maintaining the filthy, unjust, impoverished, grossly unfair, slave wage economy, status quo that is God's Own Penal Colony. ;-)

Small businesses tend to have forty-nine or fewer employees. Companies with fifty employees, or with just a few more, are quite rare.

Why is that?

Here's your homework assignment: Find out the amounts of money that all of the billionaires in Denmark, the US and the entire world have and then divide those amounts by the populations of Denmark, the US and the entire world, respectively. Show your work.

Wealth affords global power beyond the dreams of avarice:

A billionaire may commit crimes against humanity with total impunity and will be defended into ripe old age, in comfort and luxury and end up in a vast mausoleum to their memory.
A poor man [or child] can be summarily executed for failing to stop or failing to raise their hands on the order of a racist policeman.

A billionaire can completely avoid taxation on a vast and obscene income.
A poor person can be jailed [beaten and murdered] for failing to purchase a TV license.

A wealthy person requires absolute proof of supposed guilt before even being asked politely to attend a police station at a time of their own choosing attended by their team of top lawyers.
A poor person can be thrown into a police vehicle and murdered there on a mere whim.

A wealthy person can block any political change which might reduce global CO2 and dangerous pollution if it should potentially affect their vast fortune and future income.
A poor person can be arrested and jailed for protesting that blatant obscenity to democracy, health and human dignity.

A wealthy person may live anywhere on the planet which does not have an extradition order for their crimes against humanity.
The poor man must live where he is told and often in inhumane conditions.

A wealthy person will be treated with respect wherever they may travel.
A poor man may not travel upon pain of summary execution at the first border they meet.

A wealthy man is a global citizen.
A poor one is a parochial villager in chains.

A wealthy man enjoys the greatest longevity and the best health care the entire world's elite surgeons can offer.
A poor man dies decades younger in misery, pain, hunger and from easily preventable diseases.

A wealthy man may own a vast property empire and live in fabulous luxury in any city of his own choosing.
The poor man must live a miserable existence in the conditions dictated by the rich man.

A rich man will sue for silence on any matter which might blemish their name and reputation.
A host of poor innocents may not speak out about the multiple, obscene crimes against their person by a rich person and will be ignored for decades before anyone will listen.

A billionaire may pay hundreds of thousands of international currency units for a single bottle of refreshment.
One billion REAL human beings cannot afford ANY clean water AT ALL.
