They need to get real and boost the USA's capability of retaining the wealth we create here in our back yard.
A trickle turned to a river of wealth flowing out of the US. Currently other countries, especially China, but Singapore did it to HP decades ago, will entice our IP and trade secrets to their shores in exchange for lower costs and then they suck the companies dry then put them out of business.

I think Trump is a major ass, but he's right on many things he says, especially what the Chinese are doing to us.
Frustrating to see the long term stagnation of what could truly be dynamic.
Frustrating to me since I've had the same message since high school when I tried to argue as a democrat that the teachers and others in the party were more socialist than "fair" and were discouraging hard work. Idiots never got the message so I am now a Libertarian.

Not sure about Jobs... he had his own set of issues but paying taxes and extortion via fees was something he was not for. I remember when some idiot in the Cupertino city council wanted to extort free WiFi from him much as Google has for Mountain View in exchange to build their new HQ and Jobs suggested he could take the jobs and new HQ elsewhere if they were not already getting enough taxes.
We need more CEO's to be outspoken on the tax issues.
If they do, they are attacked by the POTUS for being greedy or worse.
