Bill Gates says that companies like Apple should be specially audited

Bill Gates

Every time this man speaks, we can expect almost anything, for better or for worse. Everyone knows Bill Gates, the founder of Microsoft and for some the real devil himself. For others, a philanthropist who seeks to redeem himself from all the evil that he has done with good works. Be that as it may, he is a very influential person with many contacts and very powerful. The latest statements refer to the special taxation that some companies like Apple must be subject to.

According to Bill Gates, major technology companies like Apple should face harsh criticism, investigations and questions from governments and authorities. This has been stated in a recent interview. He refers to it as a kind of questionnaire that large companies should have to go through.

Gates proposed that tech companies the size of Apple need to get special attention from government and regulatory officials, simply because of its sheer size and power. Therefore, he was not surprised by the statements of the CEOs of large companies, Apple, Amazon, Facebook and Google before the US Congress. to answer questions about monopoly.

For Bill Gates this is something that has to happen and that the Government must have a special taxation on these companies, mainly due to the power they hold and the decisions they can take if they agree. Decisions that could destabilize markets, countries ... etc

For Bill Gates, it's something that is implicit in the position:

If you are as successful as me, or any of those people, you have to be prepared for rude, unfair and difficult questions, which we probably deserve. It is something implicit in success and we must not deny it, we must accept it as it is.

Since then, who speaks does so from experience. As the leader of one of the most important companies in the world, he received many criticisms, investigations and accusations of all kinds. For him it is something normal, that all the leaders of these companies must wait.
