Jimmy Hoffa on CNN: “I think businesses are sitting on money. Look at Apple. They have $76 billion in their checking account. And they’re not spending it.” Yeah, Apple’s capital ain’t for them to allocate according to the needs of their business, it’s for making Jimmy Hoffa and Barack Obama happy! Hoffa goes on to whine that Honda (a Japanese multi-national) has an obligation to build plants in the US instead of Mexico. In Hoffa’s mind, apparently everyone’s duty is to serve him and his political allies.
