Apple could give billions
to fund wide-scale testing

Shortly before Steve Jobs died, I met with him. He told me his biggest fear was that Apple would become a financial corporation, not a product company.

With Apple announcing a stock dividend and buybacks, they are financial.

Apple supported the education system with great products and donating billions, for decades, to educate our children. In fact, Steve was criticized for not having donation programs at Apple.

Today, Apple could donate billions to support the need for wide-scale testing, to help open our economy. As outlined in my book, “The Steve Jobs Way,” I considered Steve as one our great leaders, an enduring model for society, and not money-oriented. It deeply pains me to see political and corporate greed as our current model, while unemployment is over 20%. Apple employees need not worry, Apple will weather the storm.
