Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.

White House insists iPhones will be US-made – but Apple calls it a non-starter (www.theguardian.com)

The White House is insisting that Donald Trump’s vision of Apple’s flagship iPhones being manufactured in the US will come to fruition, despite assertions from analysts and the company itself that it would not be possible.

The press secretary, Karoline Leavitt, told reporters during Tuesday’s briefing that the president believed Apple’s recently announced $500bn investment, as well as increasing import costs sparked by his trade tariffs, would encourage the company to ramp up manufacturing in the US.

“He believes we have the labor, we have the workforce, we have the resources to do it. If Apple didn’t think the US could do it, they probably wouldn’t have put up that big chunk of change,” she said.

It's like they can't come to terms with the way life is and that they might not be the center of everyone's world. My 5yo has the same problem. Tomorrow doesn't seem to exist for him, he thinks anything he wants to have he should have because he wants it, doesn't believe in giving, even to kids he calls "friends" at school, some of something he has and needs it all himself, and getting him to be quiet for a few min while having a conversation with anyone but him will result in him relentlessly trying to get our attention. Oh, and a lot of the stuff he wants to do makes no sense and sometimes goes completely against the laws that govern matter.

Our society is being driven off a cliff by people who have the same mentality as a child who hasn't learned to share. Grown ass mother fuckers, with no empathy or understanding of their insignificance in the universe, so they go scorched-Earth to get their way. It would be fucking pathetic if there wasn't so much on the line.
