NEW: Apple announces that it plans to invest more than $430 billion in the United States and add 20,000 new jobs nationwide over the next five years.

The major investment in the U.S. economy represents a 20% increase from Apple's original five-year goal of $350 billion set in 2018.

As part of its investments and expansion, Apple plans to put over $1 billion into North Carolina where it will build a new campus and engineering hub in the Research Triangle area, creating at least 3,000 additional jobs. The company will also establish a $100 million fund to support schools and community initiatives in the greater Raleigh-Durham area and across the Tar Heel state, and will be contributing over $110 million in infrastructure spending to the 80 counties with the greatest need.

Apple, which is the largest U.S. taxpayer and already supports more than 2.7 million jobs nationwide, will also be rapidly expanding its teams and operations across other states, including California, Colorado, Massachusetts, New York, Texas and Washington, according to the press release.

Apple is still making I phones in China , using cheap labors. Apple isn’t going to save America with this empty promise .

iPhones built in the US = livable wage + healthcare plan + 401k + paid vacation VS FOXCON low wages and nets around the buildings tall enough to kill yourself if you jump off. Ironically AND I HATE TO SAY THIS... woke kids working for Apple are gonna make shitty phones.

Where can you go for fun in your city?

But will Apple's product pricing to up or down?

And they will charge you 2000.00 for the new iphone

...looking forward to purchasing one of Apple's fully automated new electric cars

Big Boy ; Apple....!!!

And pay no taxes while they get richer.

About time
