A Trump Win Might Be a Boon for Apple

I just had a thought while chatting with some friends. What if Apple buys Tesla, and leverages the IP, along with moving iOS and even Mac production stateside? There has been plenty of speculation about them building cars or buying Tesla, and Donald Trump was recently reported to have said that he would make them move production back stateside. This might actually be something which would benefit Apple’s bottom line. I think they have enough IP protection to pull all of that off. And they’d have PR coups over even the American car manufacturers, which would place pressure on them to move more production back stateside. I really think, the more that I think about it, that Trump winning could make Apple more money than its ever made over a Presidential term. It could be absolutely massive. With IP, you can afford union wages, as the restricted competition means greatly increased profit margins. Considering the nationalist fervor which would accompany a Trump win, this might be a win for Apple as well.

Free Talk Live

Filed under: Free Talk Live, Obama, race, state worship — Robert Wicks @ 2:47 pm

My favorite radio show hands down is Free Talk Live. It is consistently pro-liberty, and the hosts, Ian and Mark allow callers to talk about whatever they like. I called in last night and talked a bit about race (about 1:35:00 into the show).
