    Personally, I don't want to live in a world where college is free. I do not want to pay for your kid to go to college nor do I want to pay your doctor bills. Nothing is free, somebody is paying for it. Rather it not be me.
    You might have selfish attitudes now, but at some point you may need the charity of others. You reap what you sow. Helping others benefits humankind, or perhaps you don't want to be part of that clan.
    Fine, here's one for you: let's re-instate the draft, because in your framework, that would be the only fair thing to do.  Let's see how well that one flies.

    PS: I'm a 10 year vet, so don't charge me with hypocrisy.

    32 GB is exactly the size iPad I want.  The $599 32GB iPad is exactly what I want.

    Stop being so myopic.
    If anyone's being myopic (and self-centered), that would be you my friend.

    Besides, Apple's now overcharging all those imminent iPad customers who only need 16GB of storage, according to your logic.

    iPad Pro. 

    Now begins the PC replacement cycle.  In 5 years hardly anyone will be using laptops.
    Stop with this nonsense.  If this were true, we'd "hardly...be using laptops" now since iPads have been around for 5 years.  It's not the form factor, it's the operating system.

  • What to expect from Apple's 'let us loop you in' event today

    I think all of Apple's computer lines, both desktop and laptop, are begging for significant changes.  Given the advent of USB-C, TB3, and Skylake, it would be nice to see redesigns of the Macbook Pro, iMac, and at least updates to everything else.

  • Three weeks after calling for Apple boycott, Donald Trump is tweeting from his iPhone again

    Plenty of people despise Hillary, a hell of a lot more people than just Trump supporters.

    So Trump is using an iPhone again? Big deal.

    Hillary lied directly to the families of dead American soldiers. Now that is truly disgusting, despicable and anti-American. A hell of a lot more disgusting than using an iPhone.
    That's just such bull. Benghazi! was a major confusion a continent away: so answers demanded immediately were imperfect? Grow up. That's aside from the teensy detail? NONE of the four were soldiers, "American" or otherwise and that's sort of disrespectful of the dead right there to not even get their details right.

    ENDLESS Republican Congressional investigations and reports have found precisely ZERO basis for any of that nonsense: zero. To the degree there's responsibility it probably lies within the CIA who didn't want the existence of their special operations compound made public, so the details of the fate of the two operators who died in the  later mortar attack at the CIA site got deliberately blurred. The two civilians at the consulate? Carbon monoxide poisoning, reported rather early on by multiple sources.
    Who are you telling to grow up?  They were vets.

    Aside from that, the initial problem politically was watching the Obama administration, particularly the State Department with Clinton at its helm, blame the attack on an anti-Muslim video some idiot in LA made and posted to Youtube.  I get the fog and friction of war; I'm a vet too.  What happened in Benghazi was tragic, and probably could have been avoided if our personnel had been a bit smarter in what they were doing and how they were doing it (or of course just not been there at all).  But to try to distract the American people by blaming a Youtube video???  Welcome to the clown show.....
