Breaking up monopolies is communism!
>>538010659what does apple have a monopoly over
ipad socialism
>>538010618Pretty disrespectful to not only use a picture of Michael Jackson but also to misquote him.
>>538010618>Thousands of teenage girls write AOC about how their next upgrade is too expensive so their parents are making them wait until Christmas>This is now cause for AOC to call on the dismantling of the most iconic brand Little girls in power! Yay socialism!
>>538010689Blue text messagesAndroidcel revolution when
>>538010659>Breaking up monopolies is communism!I remember when the US actually cared about consumer rights and actively broke up monopolies. Now it's considered far left extremism, even though it was completely normal, mainstream politics in the 1970s
>>538010618I bet she's never used a PC or android. Would make her feel confused and icky
>>538010689You're right they don't have a monopoly but you're still a faggot for defending corpos (especially fucking apple of all things, which has done terrible damage to computing)
>>538010659
>>538010689Dumb bitches
>>538010948There isn't really any company with a monopoly like Ma Bell, on a national level. Lots of price fixing though, and regional monopolies for utilities and services, internet, etc.
>>538011110Nobody forced anyone to buy Apple products. They do not have a monopoly on anything. I have personally never owned an Apple product and probably never will.
>>538011126At least Rockefeller gave back to the public buy building libraries and hospitals...eventually.
>>538011110fucking communist. I hope a brownshirt smashes your face, or you start a successful rival to Apple
>>538010659We don't need to use the monopoly excuse. We can outright regulate corporations. Trust-busting was made up in Teddy's time. We can make consumer welfare a goal of the government.
>>538011227Of course there is. Google has a virtual monopoly on search with 91% of market share. Microsoft owns 87% of business productivity market share. Meta has no real competitors for social media in the US after Trump bought and destroyed Tiktok. There's so many open monopolies in the US that the government no longer cares to break up because the companies all pay their bribes on time.
>>538010618The market price of RAM is forcing Apple to jack up prices or sell at a loss! Don't go look at Sam Altman hoarding RAM. Git that bad Apple!
>>538010618do the democrats have a single person thats said they'll do anything good for an American citizen in the last 10 years?
>>538010618>they want what we have!you guys bombed a school full of kids, you hide epstein’s friends, and you backstab your entire country with the healthcare jew scam.congress is full of retards projecting because they’re all “in on it” or complete Hellen Keller status
>>538010618Even a broken clock is right twice a day.
deport this whore already
>>538011248>>538011294congress made a million magic beans deals israeli shitters like apple and microsoft took advantage of and lie to our faces about os dominance. the reality is a majority of those machines are corporate scams in an attempt to bury unix. name one good program a mac can run.
>Trumps a bigger commie then any current sitting Dem
>OP 1 pbtid>ok this is based
>>538010618Are we allowed to talk about it yet?
>>538010618I want AOC to do a split on this dick, bitch.
>>538011377That's not monopoly, it's due to consumer preference. I don't use Bing because it sucks. Don't run linux or one of the many operating systems because it's a hassle. You don't understand what monopoly means, do you. It isn't market share.
>>538011387>RAMThat’s so 2025>22uF capacitors Sir!!! This is 2026
>>538011248It doesn't have to be Apple specifically. We need lower prices across the board. If corporations can act in their interest, so can consumers.Tax all profits at 100%. The shareholders can pay themselves a salary which is taxed like anyone else. That also ends valuation inflation.
>>538010618that's my mom.
>>538011608Who’s going to risk capitol if there are no profits to be made?
>>538011680People who want to pay themselves million dollar salaries. Entrepreneurs become millionaires, not trillionaires. We're hurtling ourselves into an economic paradigm where ordinary people have no stake in the American economy. Shares are just too expensive. A stock exchange shouldn't just be billionaires jerking off other billionaires.
Apple just came out with a $500 laptop NEO.She's an idiothttps://youtu.be/M7BAuiPYn7A
>>538011793Huh?Just End the FedShrimple As
>>538010618You know other companies make phones and electronics right? Plus they can relocate. The whole production is outside of US jurisdiction. They just have to close HQ down and decentralize with VPNs, use a Caribbean Post-office for corporate HQ.AOC is seriously the dumbest bitch i've ever seen in politics.It's like her brain matter is located entirely within her admittedly voluptuous tits.Why are the well-breasted ones so stupid in matters of politics and economics?
she should boycott them, force libtards to use Windows and Android.
>>538010618Tranny thread
>>538011533
>>538011873MehYou do >pic related And get your self recorded by a foreign intelligence service
>>538010618DSA is just going to flood the country with illegals and do everything they can to consolidate power so they can continue the same half assed socialism that only serves illegals. Gavin and the state legislature in California are already raising healthcare premiums since the federal government stopped paying because of how much fraud exists. You won't get free healthcare or assistance affording rent, that's all going towards illegals.
>>538010618Apple is the only tech giant that litigates against state intrusions on privacy, no wonder a leftist cunt wants them broken up.
>>538011496
>>538012071Probably this
>>538011852Even countries with state-owned central banks have the same issue. The root of extreme wealth inequality is the profit incentive. All of our money is being funneled into buying stocks. It's all fictional wealth created by financial vultures at the push of a button. None of this touches the real economy. It's real money that we receive mixed with imaginary money that they receive. That's why we have declining living standards coupled with wealth generation in the trillions. That wealth doesn't exist.When shareholders have to pay themselves a salary, all of this stops. They can only get richer by generating wealth that you can touch.
>>538010618Apple is insignificant in the broader scope of the tech sector. They are just a phone company. Break up real monopolies like Nvidia and Micron and it's RAM cartel. Also let me BRRRRRRRRRRR those melones mami with the big juicy booty latina.
>>538010618>break them up>and consumer protection maybe she is angling to fight to protect your privacy...when she says consumer protection....what a fucking disaster Trump has been, and his utter failure to deliver.... He and the zionists are handing this mandate to the far left.again...its not all Trump and politicians.You guys in Kentucky voted to oust Massie.
>>538012071>litigates against state intrusions on privacyKys.
>>538012216>how do you plan to protect against privacy.transparency. I want the apple engineers to tell you exactly how that shit works....or if they don't decide to work with us....I hope our engineers tell you exactly how the shit is going to work on w/e device we produce. Anyways it all depends on you guys buying this shit and taking off. But I'm kinda over this shit.and just want to get out of here.
>>538011825>just releasedyou mean 3 months ago, it got a $200 price increase
>>538012142If I got you working for me but I payed you with copied Monopoly money but I had you so brain fucked that you thought it was real money and you kept working for me for free to me copied Monopoly money does that make you my slave?It’s called babylonian money magicEnd the FedPSAnybody think JFK was joking?Don’t answer that most of us are dumber than the slaves of 1860s due to FLUORIDE MICROPLASTICS and eating GOYSLOPSWe went broke and went under the control of bankruptcy receivership company. We have an illusion of a republic but the legal framework has long been usurped. That’s why “officers of the court” lawyers laugh you out of court room when you argue the constitution It’s quite a rabbit hole. It’s called Act of 1871Receivership company is USA Inc. Vatican Corporation is the debt holderRothschild family owns (some all dunno)The “federal government” has been operating under a charter called>Constitution of the United States of America If you look the original says >Constitution for the united States of America Fun FactSince 1913 we can no longer coin money and we have to borrow what we print from the same people that owns the receivership company. Forever stuck in debt
>>538011793lol you are poor
>>538010832The brand with the icon of taking bite of an apple from the tree of knowledge and has a fag ceo?
>>538012071they haven't done shit for user privacy since Jobs got merked, ever since then they've been good goys just like jewgle
>>538012417We're all poor. My family has millions of dollars of wealth but it's all because of insane housing prices propped up by banks and shares of corporations whose prices are also propped up bty banks. It's fake wealth. What we ultimately own is a home in a nice neighborhood and virtually meaningless voting rights in certain megacorporations. The government says we're rich, but what do we really own? Just a pile of bricks.
If you haven't figured out the grift where democrats come down on businesses and overregulate them, requiring more bureaucracy, so they need more tax monies to pay bureacrats so your shit is more expensive and the tax money is wasted, I don't know what to tell you. The big cities turned into unmanageable hellholes as a result of politicians doing exactly what DSA is proposing, again, while ignoring the reality. They can't and won't be voted out because they'll pass laws that makes that impossible and pay their cronies your tax dollars to deliver nothing. Then they'll ask for more tax money to fix the thing they didn't fux but since they have a ballot harvesting operation on politically illiterate people they'll get voted in again. The national media won't ask tough questions, like why would things be any different if we continue the same strategies? And they'll be huge disappointments locally that get promoted into national office. Anyone believing any of this garbage is either new to politics or just a complete rube.
>>538012417If I can produce everything I need to comfortably live for my self and my family why do I need money for?
>>538012806Don’t forget most peoples property don’t come with mineral or water rights. And HOA you only own the building not the land
>>538012825>DSASoooooo we’re still not allowed to talk about it?
>>538010618>UnChEcKeD PoWeR>Completely neglects real tech oligarchs like SpaceX, Amazon, Google
>>538013093Remind us what investment company owns them
>>538011110Maybe he's not defending Apple or corpos so much as telling the government to obey the law as written instead of fuguring out how to work around it. Having some government official decide to fuck with private business (or gun rights, or personal liberty) just because they want to is bullshit.
>>538013344>big. fucking. mistake. with laser eyes>literally NOTHING happenedkek
>>538011793Agree.
>>538010618How you retards keep voting republican after this
>>538013838very easily when the Democrats keep being this retarded. But you do you.
>>538010689>what does apple have a monopoly overThe homosexual sciences.
>>538010618HANG THAT KIKE/BEANER
>>538010618She's not wrong, as it's most likely Apple will see higher profit margins with the markups. The problem is the markups have to happen either way because we have limited resources like helium that are used in making chips coming out of the strait of Hormuz. There is also the shortages on memory and hard drives due to data centers buying up the supply.
>>538010618purely done as a shakedown for political donations, very clever.
>>538010618I'd bet she has a few iThings she likes to flex in front of her poors.
>>538011825>starting at $590>anon calls it $500Retards like this are why prices end in .99.
