When people mention the 35% tax for repatriation of funds, they fail to realize that Apple has no plans to bring that money back to the States. Their stated intention is to reinvest that money overseas. I'm sure they also use it to pay their Asian suppliers and manufacturers.

If we had another repatriation tax holiday, with taxes dropping to 5%, Apple would bring back a huge portion of their cash that is currently overseas. They dont need anywhere near that much cash sitting overseas.
