  • Apple, other tech firms back Harvard in legal battle over race in admissions

    The Supreme Court has already ruled against these unconstitutional attempts at “balancing” things by reverse-discrimination.
    fill in the details on this or I will assume this is a GOP "fact"

    As does the FDA.
    As of late I have more faith in Apple.   ;)
    That's exactly what corporate America has been hoping for, distrust our civil institutions and embrace the INC

    I wish my Apple Watch could detect the presence of a Libertarian or a Trump supporter, never mind I would see they were not wearing masks.

  • Apple's Jeff Williams 'bullish' about post-coronavirus economic recovery in US

    corrections said: All because 1/3 of the country refuses to belive in science.
    That's the big lie that the GOP hopes people are buying: that they don't believe in science. What they actually don't believe in is democracy. The last thing Republicans want is for the general population to think democratic governance is helping them. They've spent decades trying to convince the country that the private sector has the answers to everything and that democracy isn't really necessary. Every day that goes by in the pandemic proves otherwise, so they've got to rush to "reopen the economy" at the behest of private business in order to try and prop up the illusion that business owners are in control. 
    AMEN brother!

    The US is not a democracy at the Federal government level. Why? Because it was designed that way from the beginning. The US is a republic, a coalition of States with representatives “hired” by each State to represent them in Washington. It is not a kingdom, not a direct democracy, not a dictatorship, not a Marxist panacea.

    Nice spin!
    But that story will change as soon as Republicans lose control of most states.  Then on to the next story.   And the next.  And the....

    Funny though how Trump wanted total, unchallenged control -- until faced with a pandemic he had no idea how to deal with.  Then suddenly everything shifted to the states.
    Some people are just bitter that they lost ground in a < 3% unemployment economy growing at 3-4%/year.   And feel the need to yell into the wind on a message board in the middle of a work day 
    Like you just did.
