Gulp. Apple certainly has the might to influence more than technology now. To repeat a tweet: Apple could buy Greece and rename it iCountry.

Why not buy Ireland as they use it as a base within the EU. They could rename it iReland

To be fair, the US government could just print more money if it really had to. All Apple can do is make a new iPod or iPhone.
Wait... those are the same thing aren't they?

Better still buy Iceland it has plenty of volcanoes, and possibly one that Steve could hollow out.  _________________Do concentrate, 007... "You are gifted. Mine is bordering on seven seconds." https://www.dropbox.com/referrals/NTg5MzczNTkhttp://astore.amazon.co.uk/wwwx404couk-21

I have more money than the US Government! I don't have any debt, the US has trillions... It isn't difficult to have more money than the US Government!
