As an aside, gifts to the president belong to the citizens of this county, not to the particular president.

When big government picks winners and losers in the economy and it’s pay to play in government-business relations, comps are the rule, not the exception. The market should determine winners and losers in business, not government.

If Apple stuff wasn’t so cool and cutting edge, I’d never buy it. Do I want to live with a cool phone that as apps for everything or use another, less capable phone, politics can make us tough consumer choices.
