They paid income tax on the profits (at least the profits earned in the USA). Apple was the number one tax payer on the list by a wide margin. Are they supposed to be taxed on their bank balances also?

They paid income tax on the profits generated in the USA, but not those generated eg in the EU.

Well, SAP also paid income taxes on USA profits, but not those generated e.g. in the EU. So what?
