They started buying U.S. politicians for earnest what middle of last decade, right? I think most people can see how absurd the situation is = the Attorney General can't move a finger in anything because he's totally owned by corporations. It sure is expensive to manhandle maybe 40% of the electorate to the polls.

Msft is like any other large cap company. It's not whether they played mean with other companies or not. They just cannot grow as fast as they could in the past. It's not mathematically possible. Same as csco couldn't be a trillion dollar company in 2000. It really didn't have anything to do with John Chambers hitting his competitors over the head with routers, they just couldn't sell enough to justify that market cap unless they started selling to all the residents of Jupiter and Saturn.
