So then, will the new hipster mantra be to repeal environmental and safety regulations while dismantling worker's rights?
Illuminating quotes from the late and not so great Steve Jobs:
Steve Jobs Biography Reveals He Told American workers, "Drop dead.""You're headed for a one-term presidency," he told Obama at the start of their meeting, insisting that the administration needed to be more business-friendly. As an example, Jobs described the ease with which companies can build factories in China compared to the United States, where "regulations and unnecessary costs" make it difficult for them.
Jobs also criticized America's education system, saying it was "crippled by union work rules," noted Isaacson. "Until the teachers' unions were broken, there was almost no hope for education reform." Jobs proposed allowing principals to hire and fire teachers based on merit, that schools stay open until 6 p.m. and that they be open 11 months a year.

Anyone who dares to criticize our nation's educational system or burdensome regulations must be demonized.
Capt. Bringdown,
You fail
Why the did he care about regulation in the USA when he just off-shored the Apple work to China anyway?
In other words, "If I could pay my works $50.00 a week, like I do in China, America would be better of and more compe ive(....and I can stay filthy rich).
You, Jobs.
Steve Jobs was a genius innovator, but he could have build his technology in the US and improved the lives of millions of Americans...he made the choice to build his a lot cheaper somewhere else...like every other businessman he put the interest of his investors above the interests of American workers....bet he's regretting that right now....
:puke
All those ty batteries and hard drives are his progeny of cost control. They made a conscious decision that it was easier to deal with recalls then to actually QC the batteries.
And if by innovation you mean select sans sarif font by default then i agree. He didn't invent the GUI, portable MP3 player, honeycomb, flash etc. He put them in nice packages.
Marketer? You bet.
Artist? Sure why not.
Innovator? Nope
yeah, evil petty business man that knows how to make a profit!
I disagree..its very easy for businesses to get complacent and not take chances...the fact that anyone could have done what both Gates and Jobs did does not belittle the fact that nobody else but them did...that takes vision and cheepazz..that's what businesses need but most don't have - a visionary leader ...and to put his vision to practical application Jobs had to be very innovative...I just think he could have helped more people here in the process instead of some foreign sweat shop.....in that, he failed big time....
LOL, I make no claim as to what anyone "must," a snide and misleading comment on your part.
I bet he isn't doing anything right now.
I think you answered your own question.
I agree, he is probably just lying around.
How do you regret something when you're 6 feet in the ground?
The OP believes in an afterlife, is what you can infer by that.
He was right about one thing.Jobs also criticized America's education system, saying it was "crippled by union work rules," noted Isaacson. "Until the teachers' unions were broken, there was almost no hope for education reform." Jobs proposed allowing principals to hire and fire teachers based on merit.
Steve Jobs Said He'd 'Go Thermonuclear War' On Google Over iPhone 'Theft'

Lots of inside stuff coming on SJ, including from his own mouth.
LOL Jobs, Trump, etc
egomaniacs giving advice on education and politics
LOL @ Apple claiming theft when their whole Macintosh concept was pirated from Xerox.
In addition to the usual Billionaire Boys Club anti-Union blather, Jobs’ comments essentially repudiate Democracy and endorse a Communist/Authoritarian regulatory structure as THE desirable business environment, and yet he’s hailed as a visionary hero. Just another 1%er spewing bollocks IMO.
yup. don't forget Jobs also stole the ipad from Xerox
How so?
iPad doesnt have a physical keyboard
HP did a pad in the early 2000s. iPad isn't at all an original concept, just a good iteration propelled by the anything-Apple-is-cool culture effect.
