13. You guys sound like Freepers...

talking about Obama. The OP accuses Jobs of wage collusion. One line in an e-mail doesn't prove it. If you are going to get a head hunter to go cherry picking another company's proven top engineers, expect to have objections raised. That isn't collusion to keep wages low. Steve jobs didn't write the trade laws. You all sound more bent than any Apple fan boy. You're just pissed because he bitch-slapped Michael Dell.
