To me, it&#x27;s no different than me buying raw ground beef (not taxable to me locally) vs a prepared hamburger (taxable to me at 7% locally).<p>I&#x27;m free to choose between those, but when I buy raw ground beef, I&#x27;m not evading taxes and I assume you don&#x27;t feel insulted by the fact that I think it&#x27;s up to me whether or not I pay beef tax.<p>It&#x27;s a choice I make in the face of a multi-dimensional optimization problem, same as Apple is doing on a scale 10^9 larger.
