    I enjoy a lot of the programming on Netflix, and I'm willing to pay for it. Does that make me a sucker? Y'all think everyone should get the whole enchilada for free. I have Apple TV+, and pay their very reasonable charge. Even though they don't have 1% of Netfilx titles, the AVERAGE quality of the programming, from cast, crew, photography, production values, etc. is a quantum level above that of Netflix, or Prime, or even HBO Max. "Foundation" on our new Samsung TV, through the Apple TV 4K box, using the Sony WH-1000XM4 headphones was a revelation!
    You are not alone. I’ve had Netflix from day one and enjoy quite a bit of it’s content. Won’t be dropping down to ad free. No adds no thank you!

    That’s truly awesome. Nice of the officer to take the time share responders’ POV.

    Elizabeth Warren is the kind of person who is smart but unbalanced. I don't mean 'unbalanced' as in 'crazy,' I mean it in terms of over-emphasizing the importance of some things and under-emphasizing others. And I don't think it's just a negotiating strategy -- I think she really means it. So it's fine for her to be 1 of 100 senators, but I'd say 1 of her in the senate is enough and she must never be president.

    So hopefully her good ideas survive the legislative process and the bad ones get cut. The $5 billion cap thing is definitely a bad one. Paying attention to the impact of mergers on employees sounds good, as does changing the burden of proof for DOJ and FTC. 
    Elizabeth Warren is not a capitalist. She is about as anti-capitalist as it gets. She’s close to being a downright communist in that she thinks the state should control the entire economy from top to bottom, control prices, wages, production, the whole tamale. Her ideas are close to a centrally managed economy, regulate it until it is.
    A recent poll found that 50% of young Americans think they would like to ‘try’ communism. As if they could change back to capitalism if they wanted to.
    You said it better than I could. We have to stand up against their leftist agenda. I have a bill idea to propose how about giving congress members eight year terms only and get rid of their capacity to milk the system the same way they’re accusing big tech of doing. F**king up America but blaming everyone else.

    Can't someone silence this self-absorbed blabbermouth?
    If someone is entitled to talk about Jobs’ early days, it is Woz. Maybe you should read some books about apple’s history before you comment about Woz. 

    i often think, “Without Woz, Apple will never started. Without Jobs, Apple will never succeeded”
    Well putted my friend.
