There's a lot in this post, but the best part is his descriptions of (Billy) Gates, (Larry) Ellison, and (Scott) McNeely:

Chapter Two - How to recognize State Manipulation and Unfair Play:
Little Billy, raised on base ball and apple pie, decided to take a chance, skip school and realize his dream of providing the best and least expensive software, as judged by the market and conceded by the competition, so that people across all lands can use with joy a seamless, robust and ever improving machine to work, study, communicate and entertain.
Sam, the faceless, tasteless, heartless and visionless, having not been properly greased by Billy’s largess, colludes with ruthless but presentable Scot and mean but stealthy Larry to bring Billy down. Their selfish desires left no room for the common Nasdaq good.
The sense of fair play is no more, left as so much crumpled rags on the steps of state dictated “industrial policy by default”, and together, to an Internet Horseman, they all fall.
LOL, but who the hell is Sam? (Perhaps he thought Thomas Penfield Jackson was Samuel L. Jackson....?)<G> |
