/----/ You idiot. The stock went up because of the way Jobs developed products starting with the iPod.
Jobs "developed" them, or other people developed them, and had their work declared "intellectual property"?
See the problem, buddy?
Those same Union Jobs that caused Eastern Airlines to go bankrupt? The same ones that caused GM to go bankrupt?
Actually, those companies went bankrupt because the guys making the 8 figure salaries made bad decisions. Not because the unions demanded good wages and benefits.
Sorry you are confused on this point.
Joe because the unions told people to strike when the company was in trouble, that was the change that came to America that made people expendable. Stupid ***** like you, just want to continue the status quo of FAILURE...
so what's your alternative, we all work for slave wages and no benefits, so a few rich people can be richer? Because somehow you have delusions of having your Barbie Mansion?
No. Private companies are the opposite of Socialism.
Listen, Joe. You can't just go around making up your own words. Or, well, I guess you can, but then you're not actually communicating with anyone. You might as well be typing gibberish.
You are avoiding the point. If I pay into an insurance plan or work to pay for insurance, and I don't get sick that year, I'm paying for the guy who did get sick that year.
That's socialism, buddy. Or at the least collectivism.
We can't afford to give paid medical care to every citizen in America. It could bankrupt our country. And we definitely can't afford to do it if we keep allowing third worlders to come into this country and sap our resources.
Two issues here.
Of course we can give paid medical care to everyone in the country. We already spend more per capita than any country in the world, and those countries provide health care to all citizens. The money is there, just not being spent properly. Less for CEO salaries and more for primary care. Problem solved.
As for the "Third Worlders", they probably produce more than they 'sap". Again, the problem is wealth distribution, not who is coming here.
