  • FCC's Sternly Worded Letter to Apple [View article]
    > "While I am a free market guy, the hording of wireless licenses by four dominant wireless carriers makes regulation of those licenses essential and the FCC is doing what should have been done years ago."

    How long before a studious judge pores thoughtfully over the Constitution and discovers a "right" to own an iPhone and to have the maximum technologically feasible bandwidth, all for free?

    About what I paid for the last Apple II+ sold in my neck of the woods around that time. I no sooner had it all put together when it became obsolete, superseded by the //e. Wish I'd put the money into AAPL instead of that stupid-ass computer which long since went to that toxic waste dump down the road...

    My cat EATS headphone wires. She finds them wherever I hide them. I won't be buying any little Apple gadget that won't work with five-dollar earbuds.

  • Cramer's Mad Money -10 Reasons the Economy Is Not So Bad (2/6/09) [View article]
    > Housing sales are rising where the prices are low. In addition, the $15,000 tax credit for homebuyers might help spark a housing recovery.

    Please excuse my cynicism, but I see the net effect of this "tax credit" as increasing the asking price of homes currently on the market by about $15,000 each.

    It's up!! NO, wait, it's DOWN!!

    No, it's UP!! Oh, it's DOWN!!!!

    No short selling. Mortgages for people who cannot pay rent. Government indemnification of the inevitable results. Central manipulation of markets.

    Well, at least they are buying iPods. But they all think Jobs has cancer. No, wait, they're buying cigarettes. Yeah, that's it -- CIGARETTES!!!

    Don't like the Dow? Wait a day or so.
