Steve Jobs Eulogy & Proof Capitalism Works with P.S. on 2012 Presidential Election

Steve Jobs, founder of Apple Inc. and computer scientist plus inventor died on Wednesday, October 5, 2011 at age 56 from pancreatic cancer. Jobs created Apple Inc. and created the Apple computer Macintosh which was introduced in the 1984 TV commercial “1984”. Today, Apple computers are like state of the art for making & editing movies. What makes Steve Jobs great is he never used politics & lobbying to help with his business.  Steve Jobs is proof as well as Ford Motor Co. that capitalism works and government grants are unnecessary. Without government grants any business that fails goes out of business. With government grants any business that fails still keeps on going because as long as the grants are still active and can always be paid with tax money, that business doesn’t have to care about the quality of their products.

                Steve Jobs is an old school entrepreneur and by old school I mean one who separates the state from business entirely. When Chrysler Corperation and General Motors received bailout packages from the federal government, Ford Motor Company refused bailout money. As a result, Chrysler Corp. was saved by Fiat, General Motors filed for bankruptcy and Ford Motor Co. was successful and the business was unaffected negatively. These are proofs that government grants only send a message that it doesn’t matter if you fail because the government can bail you out which is a form of paternalism. US President Grover Cleveland vetoed hundreds of bills passed by Congress. He championed limited government and is quoted: “I can find no warrant for such an appropriation in the Constitution, and I do not believe that the power and duty of the general government ought to be extended to the relief of individual suffering which is in no manner properly related to the public service or benefit. A prevalent tendency to disregard the limited mission of this power and duty should, I think, be steadfastly resisted, to the end that the lesson should be constantly enforced that, though the people support the government, the government should not support the people. The friendliness and charity of our countrymen can always be relied upon to relieve their fellow-citizens in misfortune. This has been repeatedly and quite lately demonstrated. Federal aid in such cases encourages the expectation of paternal care on the part of the government and weakens the sturdiness of our national character, while it prevents the indulgence among our people of that kindly sentiment and conduct which strengthens the bonds of a common brotherhood.” Grover Cleveland is tied with Thomas Jefferson as the greatest presidents in American history for following the Constitution and limited government. Many politicians think on the contrary to the constitution’s original meaning today. With the recent murder of American citizen Anwar al-Awlaki by President Barack Obama’s order, the president has shown not only contempt for the US Constitution, but for criminal laws that bound ALL citizens, regardless of if they govern or not. Obama is not only a horrible president but a criminal! This murder of an American citizen is an impeachable offense and Obama’s lawyers are willing to fight to the legal death to defend Obama’s actions. The reason is al-Awlaki is a suspected terrorist. The 5^th amendment guarantees that life, liberty & property cannot be deprived without due process of law. I think this guy might be a bearded scumbag but I would have liked to see al-Awlaki arrested & tried for his actions and if convicted face capital punishment. The assassination of al-Awlaki sent a horrible message that the president can have anyone, regardless of US citizenship assassinated without due process merely because he thinks the target is a terrorist.

                BTW, Obama WILL get re-elected unless Ron Paul wins the Republican nomination for president. With Rick Perry and Mitt Romney tearing at each other over programs like social security, Ron Paul is not one to resort to mudslinging like Perry and Romney. With Rick Perry losing support because the truth is spreading throughout the campaign, Ron Paul; gains momentum and will send a message to the media that we don’t need your help! Romney is Ron Paul’s most powerful rival in the Republican nomination campaign for president in 2012. However, with Ron Paul gaining momentum and support, Romney will soon see a decline in support for his campaign while Ron Paul speeds to first place. Paul’s message of limited government, competing currencies, non-interventionism & peace, and prosperity.
