I agree with you. The cost in lives and treasure of mounting a military campaign against some of these dictatorships would be very high. And practically speaking, it's not necessarily worth it for America (as cold as that sounds). On the ot

What a strange title for this story "Why the Internet is America’s greatest weapon". It implies a lot about the mindset of the author. Clearly, the author still sees America as a shining beacon of democracy for the world, and believes that

My take from the article is that the patents fetched so much money because they would be a good defense against being sued. In Google's case, 'the search giant's interest was primarily defensive, “to create a disincentive for others to sue

When I say Apple doesn't compete on price, I'm talking about pricing aggressively as the OP suggested: "they can do so with price cuts deep enough and long enough to drive most potential competitors out of business." When a company has prof
