It’s official; Apple has more cash than the US government. $76.4bn vs $73.7bn. Zimbabwe has a GDP of $7.474bn.
On the way home at lunchtime I passed by a neighbour’s recently combined maize crop. The transporter must have spilt some kernels outside the fence because a man had dropped his bicycle by the road and was gathering up what he could find. I saw a dirty pile of some 3 or 4kg. I guess he didn’t really care that and American tech company has cash worth many times our GDP – his problems were far more immediate.
Zimbabwe Absurdity 
Reminds me of the injunction in the Bible not to harvest your fields right to the edge, so that the poor can glean from the leavings.
