What I find so ironically amusing about the fact that Apple is now the most profitable company on the planet is that most liberals have been pointing to Apple for years as a "progressive" company with liberal values. These same people would rail against the "evil capitalist" oil companies who only care about profit.

Well now Apple has even outdone the hated oil companies and despite their enormous success, they have not dropped their prices one iota (nor should they). There are no discounts for the poor and disadvantaged. So anybody wanting one of their devices is going to have to pony up the full price.

You don't see many welfare bums toting around iPhones and MacBook Pro's. That's because, as generous as we are with doling out welfare, it's still not enough for the underclass to get Apple gear - unless they run a drug or prostitution business on the side.

So in essence, Apple is the epitome of the "cold, heartless, profit-driven" company with an insatiable desire to flood the planet with their goods and services at a premium price. And many of us conservatives and share holders love them for it.
