Thanks for your response. My question addressed the issue of demand. If Apple didn't see any demand for an iCar, why would they build a factory? If Apple saw a consumer demand, then they might go ahead with their plans and hope the consumers will buy their Car.

However, when consumers don't have the ability to buy new iCars, and are busy paying off debt, building a saving account, and fighting to keep their homes, why would Apple build a plant? Given that Apple's tax rate were cut to zero, what's the sense of building a plant if they can't sell the iCars?

Of course, the tax rates might influence whether the plant is build in the U.S. or offshore. Thus, this would impact the U.S. job's picture. But, that's not part of my original question.

By the way, my original message suggested cutting the middle and lower wage earners taxes is one way to help create demand.
