The amount of money collected and spent by the US Federal government dwarfs Apple’s finances.

With all due respect /s the Pentagon doesn’t have that big of a footprint–why, it’s right across the river. But what it does have is a crap-TON of of space. It’s got inner “rings” as well as massive underground mass.

If Apple was planning to do concentric rings and dig several stories deep, then it’d be on par but … meh.

That aside, it is pretty creepy. They’ve got miles more cash on hand than our government, and seem to have just as much global power and influence. If US citizens were as loyal to our government as Apple loyalists are to Apple–noting that we all contribute to our governments, but not all of us contribute (directly) to Apple–I wonder where we’d be?

I don’t see anyone comparing sizes of other headquarter buildings. But because it’s Apple, sweet jesus we all have to give a shit about this company!

It’s stupid, useless news. Maybe we could compare volume of the building as well, since it has that huge empty area in the middle and would lose out to the Pentagon because of that?

But who cares. That’s just as pointless and unnecessary.
