Own an I-Pad or I-Phone??Posted Saturday, February 11, 2012, at 7:06 AM
Two of the most popular products in America it seems. Ever wonder about the conditions it's manufactured under? I didn't until I read this. If anyone out there wants to accuse me of bashing "Big Business" because I'm posting this link, have at it. Do any of you know how much cash Apple has on hand?? Last report, something in the range of 98 BILLION. 64 BILLION held overseas. Now it says it's thinking about maybe issuing a dividend.

A View From The Independent Side ![]() - Archives - Blog RSS feed - Comments RSS feed - Send email to Roy Pratt - Login I'm an almost 61 year old transplant from California 6 1/2 years ago. I work in road construction, those dastardly flaggers. My family roots go back to New England farms, not the big city. The last town I lived in when in California grew from 16K to 40K in 10 years, and that was enough to drive me out. I don't engage in or tolerate name calling. Name calling reduces an adult discussion to grade school play yard level.
I have never served in the military, but have family members who have, dating back to WW1. I am neither a Democrat nor a Republican. I am neither extremely Liberal or Conservative. I am raising my 16 year old grandson, not what I expected at this age, and dealing with those issues as well as my health and near retirement which are 2 things I intend to talk about. I decided to try my hand at this thanks to the warm welcome I have received on Mike's blog. When I take a position, I will defend it until I am shown that I am mistaken, and when that happens, I apologize. There are other things about me that will come out over time I'm sure.
