Are American Engineers in Short Supply?
Microsoft, after stealing Q-DOS ================ QDOS was stolen from Apple, which stole it from Xerox's PARC. You know your OS history Ponzi!— March 17, 2011 3:40 p.m.

There is a reason for that. Both Bill Gates and Steve Jobs are very paranoid people. But Jobs is more paranoid that Gates. So Jobs is careful about his inner circle of engineers that could steal (like some large 3rd world countries have a propensity for doing) and keep his cars close to his chest. ======================== That in and of itself is hilarious given the fact that Steve Jobs stole the Apple OS (first GUI OS) from the Xerox PARC computer lab, and then made it the cornerstone of the Apple OS. And even funnier still b/c MS stole it from a guy that stole it from Apple and made Windows.— March 17, 2011 3:38 p.m.

Dobs lost me when he started in questioning President Obama's citizenship. ======== It's a dead issue and anyone that brings it up is shooting themselves in the foot right off the bat. Donald Trump said in an interview-replayed on Hardball today-that he has a very SMALL amount of doubt about it-stoopid. There is a nutjob lawyer in OC named Oily Taitz that has been sanctioned $20K over filing lawsuits challenging Obama's birth place.— March 17, 2011 3:35 p.m.
Local Law Firm Looking into Bridgepoint
Bridgepoint is a fraud, the numbers tell the story-85% drop out rate, and at what COST to taxpayers? Now watch, we are going to get some Bridgepoint clown posting here under a sock puppet account- no prior posts and will register sometime after my post here. Wait and see, the sock puppet is coming.— March 17, 2011 3:27 p.m.
Are American Engineers in Short Supply?
Whatever you thought of Jobs personally, you have to look at his achievements at Apple. ================ When Apple was at $23 a share in the early 1990's my Mom-who loves Apple- wanted to buy as much as she could. I pleaded with her NOT to buy because they were going to go BK, and they were not that far off from BK then. They had a string of bad business decisions and had the flop of the century in the "Newton" hand held device. Mom didn't buy and always brings this issue up to me, cannot live it down. Then the I-mac came out and then the I-Pod and then the I-Phone and long story short they are now the biggets corp in the world using a capitalization rate. I still cannot believe their luck/fortune, whatever. I agree Steve Jobs is the driving force behind their come back.— March 17, 2011 8:48 a.m.

Dobbs restarted his "Lou Dobbs Tonight" show on Fox Business 4 days ago, Monday teh 14th. Lou has dyed his hair blond and it looks very strange to say the least. Lou has been a champion opponent of the H-1B scam and standing up for American workers for as long as I can remember. He is A-OK in my book, I knwo Don does not care for him.— March 17, 2011 8:43 a.m.
Crackdown on Stores with Illegal Gambling Machines
Over a two-week period that ended March 10, San Diego County sheriff’s deputies (in conjunction with the California Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control) conducted undercover operations to bust local businesses that offered illegal gambling machines for play. ======================== Yes, we would not want poor Mom and Pop stores interferring with those poor multi millionaire Indian gambling monopolies now would we.— March 17, 2011 8:41 a.m.
Minkow to Plead Guilty to Insider Trading
Barry, what happened buddy? Don, do you know where this case is being prosecuted? FL?— March 16, 2011 10:51 p.m.
Are American Engineers in Short Supply?
Yes, the nursing "shortage" is well known. Actually private schools also recruit heavily from the Phillipines for teachers.— March 16, 2011 10:05 p.m.
No Labor Protests in San Diego
Americans should feel bitter resentment that average people’s wages, adjusted for inflation, have gone nowhere for 20 years, while the richest 1 percent have seen their incomes grow 33 percent over the period. ================ Their income MUST have grown far more than 33%, more like 333%, or even 3,333%.— March 16, 2011 10:01 p.m.
