in light of the recent disclosure that Tim Apple committed $270B worth of goodies for China to win some favors from uncle Xi, nobody is buying this rather lame execuse anymore.


What alternative do they have? To let their competitors beat them? Would the US be better off then?


Ask Google, Facebook, or better yet Samsung. Apple has no direct competition in the premium phone segment and consequently takes 70% of the entire industry's profit share, despite only 15% in global unit sales.

Not everyone thinks Apple's profit should come before America's national or economic interest.
