and, in the process of deciding to "bring down" a corporation you have done the one thing people blame corporations for...forgetting about the little guy. Who among you will get employment for the hundreds or thousands of people you wish to put out of work?

In your dream world of bringing down multi-billion dollar companies do you also complain about the workers going on unemployment and welfare and blame it on the government not doing enough for the people?

just asking.

In my magical world, there will be another company (good, which everyone likes) started in place of evil one, and workers will go there.

Every company in existance is doing something that people demand and is legal...so if you brought the company down, one would fill its place.

I mean take out ExxonMobil and you'd have Chevron, Shell, BP taking over that marketshare.

The only companies I think should be shutdown are the ones who pay off and donate to politicians for special interests. This isn't a problem with the companies themselves but the political system in itself.

Ok... That makes no sense.

the answer fits the question accurately. it makes sense.

Why? Do you want to slow down the advancement of microcomputing? Yes their marketing strategies aren't exactly favored, but they are one of the leaders in research for new ways to transmit data.

I'm sick and tired of the snobby attitude I see in their commercials and idiots who use their equipment that assume it's better because it's a Mac...
