Pelosi Claims Government Created the iPhone, Not Steve Jobs or Apple
To quote our Dear Leader, "If you’ve got a business — you didn’t build that. Somebody else made that happen."
And that sums up the mindset of those who want to control our lives. They know better. Or something.

It was Apple co-founder, Steve Jobs who directed Apple's engineers to develop a touch screen, mobile phone. Jobs at first was considering an Apple tablet computer, that desire eventually manifested in the iPad, and Apple had already produced a palm device with a touch screen, the Newton MessagePad.

Notice first the name Stupid or Pelosillyni is nowhere on the list.
It's like cell phones

Introduction
The Internet has revolutionized the computer and communications world like nothing before. The invention of the telegraph, telephone, radio, and computer set the stage for this unprecedented integration of capabilities. The Internet is at once a world-wide broadcasting capability, a mechanism for information dissemination, and a medium for collaboration and interaction between individuals and their computers without regard for geographic location. The Internet represents one of the most successful examples of the benefits of sustained investment and commitment to research and development of information infrastructure. Beginning with the early research in packet switching, the government, industry and academia have been partners in evolving and deploying this exciting new technology. Today, terms like "bleiner@computer.org" and "http://www.acm.org" trip lightly off the tongue of the random person on the street. 1
This is intended to be a brief, necessarily cursory and incomplete history. Much material currently exists about the Internet, covering history, technology, and usage. A trip to almost any bookstore will find shelves of material written about the Internet. 2
In this paper,3 several of us involved in the development and evolution of the Internet share our views of its origins and history. This history revolves around four distinct aspects. There is the technological evolution that began with early research on packet switching and the ARPANET (and related technologies), and where current research continues to expand the horizons of the infrastructure along several dimensions, such as scale, performance, and higher-level functionality. There is the operations and management aspect of a global and complex operational infrastructure. There is the social aspect, which resulted in a broad community of Internauts working together to create and evolve the technology. And there is the commercialization aspect, resulting in an extremely effective transition of research results into a broadly deployed and available information infrastructure.
The Internet today is a widespread information infrastructure, the initial prototype of what is often called the National (or Global or Galactic) Information Infrastructure. Its history is complex and involves many aspects - technological, organizational, and community. And its influence reaches not only to the technical fields of computer communications but

If Pelosi had guessed internet she would still have been wrong it was a consulting lab working for ARPA and that's as close to a government connection as one could get.
As late as 1984 the government hadn't figured out with the new computer technology one didn't have to imitate form s made for type writers.....
One of the wonderful things Comrade Nancy is the net will giver you the correct answers you airhead you.
By her logic, since she believes in anthropogenic climate change, she must find government responsible for it too. Wait... she is constantly spewing hot air... :)
Respectfully,
O.A.
Vague hand-waving doesn't cut it. Cite the policy, who instigated it on the Republican side, who opposed it on the Democrat side, and which Amendment it violates according to you. If you're not willing to go into that level of detail, this conversation provides zero value to me and I'm done.
Would Republicans have pushed Obamacare? Nope. Every single one voted against it. Are Republicans pushing Fast and Furious? Did Republicans target conservatives via the IRS? Were Republicans the ones supplying arms to Al Queda under the guise of toppling Egypt? I can go on... and on... and on... And don't get me started on the economy.
Are Republicans perfect? Nope. But I'll take a Republican every single solitary day over a Democrat. Want to know why? Because I know that the Democrat is lying to me when he says he is all about the people. He's all about power and the expansion of it. I know that at least I have a chance at sanity with a Republican. Are there some Republicans better than others? Absolutely. With Democrats I know I'm getting a rotten apple every time.
And the only way one wins an election is to get the votes. Elections are never lost until the final tally. I reject the defeatist mindset that says that candidate X can't win. I vote my principles and let the cards fall where they may.
I don't want to debate if they were good people (maybe because I'm not that knowledgeable about it), but I am concerned our system either encourages statism or (if you think it was a few bad politicians) is not robust against elected statists. It's a grave problem. The only answer I've heard is the US Constitution, but right now that's not working b/c we slowly expand what it allows gov't to do, and there are no structures stopping it.
I like the fact that Gary Johnson acknowledges this aloud as a problem in a calm way and admits if elected he alone can't solve it.
The gentleman from the great state of South Carolina was right when he shouted "You Lie!" to our Dear Leader. His critics were very, very wrong.
Right. It's not even lack of homework, more lack of common sense.
Would you feel better having Republicans? Because that's the result of supporting candidates with no chance of winning. Every time you pull the lever for them, you're indirectly supporting something far worse.
The rhetoric that says gov't can pass a law and make goods and services flow to you for free is what I have the problem with. Maybe that's what many of the critics are saying. The indignation makes them come off as if they're saying hoocudanode..
The biopic *I Aim for the Stars" with Kurt Juergen as Wernher von Braun was parodied as "I Aim for the Stars... but only hit London."

That lack of reasoning and lack of effort has virtually destroyed our future.
I was in a discussion with an average guy ex military about 60. He was more or less uninformed about the govt. and somewhat indifferent to current issues. I pointed out some outright lies that are very disturbing. His indifferent response was an acceptance that all politicians lie. Americans accept this behavior.
If I were to lie to my clients they would fire me or sue as they should.
As a Brit acquaintance of mine says, "It's time to call a bloody spade a shovel!"
Liars they are and liars they will always be. They cannot defend their premisis with any degree of logic, so lies and obfuscation are their alternatives.
