Pretty cool.

V_RocKs 06-08-2011 02:13 PM

Jobs is looking more and more like an alien so it just goes to show...

seeric 06-08-2011 02:16 PM

lol he did look like him and talk like him.

I also find it funny that he talks about employee's and paying taxes responsibly when 90% of his labor force is offshore in China in slave camps and not paying taxes or insurance for any of them while that labor force is paid penny's.

Not a single Apple Product is Manufactured in the USA.

Apple is the largest tax payer in Cupertino.

i think its funny that he has to answer such a bunch of moronic questions. At the end the council man is begging for an Apple store to be built in Cupertino as a way to give back to the community. I bet Jobs was laughing to himself on the way home about that..."hell yea we'll take your money".

SO fucking what, he has employee's jumping out of windows and killing themselves in China.
Cupertino is fucked. I am from that area and know it like the back of my hand. I seen Jobs personally at some of his tech speeches and rallies way back when I lived in Santa Clara. The man is all ego.

It's cool he wants to build there and will probably get immediate approval. The area he wants to renovate is shit so its at least an improvement. The self powered energy using gas is interesting choice when Solar Power was not an option? You got to be fucking kidding me Mr. Jobs.

Apple is one of the only companies around that requires good working conditions at it's Chinese factories. They regularly tour them and I believe the suicide stats are way lower than for other factories.

Maybe? LOL Maybe.
But I think not.

Its slave labor paid in pennies and the labor involved is skilled labor. Which should amount to proper living conditions and housing in any civilized country with any decency. Taking advantage of those poor folks just because China does not give a shit about them does not make a viable excuse.

It's morally wrong and wrong concerning his talk about Labor being affluent in his employ and paid well.

Mr. Job's is nothing short of a slaver.

Does not matter. I am not the one employing people and paying pennies while taking advantage of an unfair trade agreement.

I do not understand why people make this point in these sort of debates. It's irrelevant.
I have no choice but to buy offshore made products.:1orglaugh
Given the choice I would buy American though knowing that the people that made it are not taken advantage of, have medical insurance, and retirement in the works while being paid what they are worth!

The stuff is not manufactured here because it is far too expensive to do so. It is designed here and are the most innovative products in the world.

Yes it DOES matter....If you're against "blood diamonds", then you will make sure you're not wearing jewelry from the congo...Same with this.....Don't bitch about what they do, while doing it on a device made from slave labor...

Seth Manson 06-08-2011 09:39 PM
