Why Steve Jobs Should Resign
Unix, a proven and robust computer operating system, which had many people-years of intellectual input and tax-payer investment was pushed into obscurity until Steve Jobs came back to Apple and resurrected it as Mac OS X for ordinary people.
"The law is blind" maxim implies that the laws are absolute and that they are applied without any interpretation. Unfortunately, this is not the case. No law is absolute! Laws are made and applied by humans based on the demands made by those with self-interests. The populous generally behaves like a mob and is blood thirsty. It takes one or two with self-interest to make this mob go in the direction they want.
Most of these who are screaming for Steve Jobs to resign are likely to benefit when he resigns and Apple stock goes down. The only ones I can see benefitting from this are Apple's Competitors or those have a financial stake in Apple's Competitors. My take on this whole Apple & Steve Jobs "Witch Hunt" is, that it is initiated and kept fueled by those who either hate Apple for its success after Steve Jobs' return or those that are going to benefit from its downfall.
Citing morals and ethics as reasons behind the calls for Steve Jobs' resignation is nothing but a cloak to disguise financial interests of those making this ruckus.
Since you disclosed that you don't have position in Apple, can you say the same thing about your positions in its competitors?
If an internal investigation was made and the financial statements were corrected, the case should be closed and people should shut up. The public outcry should be proportional to the damage caused by the act. A write off $90 million is a drop in the ocean when compared to the massive financial and horrendous social damage that was caused and continue to be caused by our leaders.
You should perhaps perform and "Institutional Risk Analysis" on the damage that was caused and is still being caused to the "American Institution" by our "so called" leaders.
